Have you tried with apt-get install puredata ? Theoretically it should be possible to use the externals together with the puredata version that is shipped by ubuntu.
it works, but there is a problem doing that: the external [import] won't load anymore (undefined symbol: sys_load_lib_dir) and since many externals are compiled as single objects in pd-extended, you would have to add a -path for each directory in [...]pd/extra/ .
.. or by instantiating the objects with a prefix (like "foo/bar") which also prevents you from importing the wrong object.
.. which is IMO the more elegant solution. thanks for that hint.
Let me clarify, I understand the pd -path [PATH]external. I could throw the bash call into a bash script and bobs your uncle but as for the other suggestion from Gunter : > the objects with a prefix (like "foo/bar") which
also prevents you from importing the wrong object.
I'm lost there. What do you mean by that explicitly. Sorry Linux newbie here...
