Yes, there is some absurdity to this conversation. I guess Frank and
I have been doing this for so long, its just part of a game we play ;-)
Anyway, I could give the instructions in one step:
- use Pd-extended ;-)
I don't think many newbies really want to get into the nitty-gritty of
hand-built Pd installs, but this conversation did make me smooth out
the installation process. Before, the 10 steps were for creating a
library from scratch. I think its pretty simple considering. Now,
the libraries are pre-built in SVN, so you only need to:
- cd /path/to/your/extra (or wherever you want to install stuff)
- svn co http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/externals/mappin...
- svn co http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/abstractions/pur...
- pd -lib libdir -lib purepd -lib mapping
If that doesn't work for you, there is a bug. That has been working
with Pd-extended for some years now. As for issues with this setup,
please elaborate on them so we can fix things.

.... monster monster-hell......
Another thing i always found strange about tthe mapping-collection.
If you want to use the helpfiles in one of your patches and actually use more then one you get into
conflictsWhat needs to be done to restructure mapping ?? I could help maybe,
because its a library i used very often and found it very useful. I would be happy to do something good to that
library ;-)All the Best

These two were meant to have reversed reasons.
Hmm, because you are doing it wrong? Try this:
- create a single place to store externals, I recommend ~/pd-
externals/ 2. add it to your path 3. cd /path/to/pure-data/trunk/abstractions/ 4. cp -a purepd ~/pd-externals
(mapping is still poorly organized in SVN, so its a bit harder)
- cd /path/to/pure-data/trunk/externals/mapping
- mkdir ~/pd-externals/mapping
- cp -a *.pd ~/pd-externals/mapping
- cd help
- cp -a *-help.pd ~/pd-externals/mapping
- touch ~/pd-externals/mapping/mapping-meta.pd
That's it. Then if you have the libdir.pd_linux loader loaded, you
can also load that as a lib using any of the standard methods.
(you'll need the libdir.c from SVN).pd -lib libdir -lib mapping declare -lib mapping import mapping
