Since you are also thinking about packaging, it would be good to open
up a discussion about how to handle some things. If you plan on just
packaging pd-vanilla, then its easy. If you want to support multiple
versions of Pd then it gets a bit more complicated.
Basically, libraries/externals can't be installed into 'pd/extra'
because then the packages would conflict. I proposed /usr/lib/pd-
externals/ as a place to install all packaged externals, so then you
could have pd-vanilla, pd-extended, desiredata, etc. installed and
they could all use the externals. Claude of pure-dyne had an
objection to this, but he didn't follow up on the details.
In any case, I think we should discuss it here so we can work out a
common solution.

Hi all!
I am going to build and maintain RPM of puredata for ALT Linux. It uses git for building RPM packages so I want to pull from existing RCS (git preferrably) repositories of pd-vanilla and pd-extended if
any.So my question is:
Is there a working git repository of pd-vanilla and/or pd-extended or is the development held in SVN or such? Found only tarball of git repository on Miller Puckette's page (which obviously not exactly what I need) but no other links to git repositories.
Thanks for any advice in advance.
