Is there a way to load the most recent version of Pd (from Miller Puckette’s site) using "get apt install”?
I’ve successfully loaded it onto my Pi using file transfer and I can get it to open, but the one that’s part of the Debian distro responds to terminal commands, etc… (At least that’s the impression I had regarding both installation methods.) But doesn’t have native OSC support, which I need.

for a program to run from the terminal or console you need to either use the full path to the binary, or put a symlink to the binary in the path that is searched when a command is given (to see that path run "echo $PATH")
in this case, a convenient solution is to run ...
$ sudo ln -s /path/to/your/pd /usr/local/bin/pd

A few days ago IOhannes posted a recipe that updates the official Debian package to the latest code from Miller. See this thread for details:
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2015-05/110064.html
And this:

in this case, a convenient solution is to run ...
$ sudo ln -s /path/to/your/pd /usr/local/bin/pd
By default Debian also adds ~/bin to your $PATH if it exists, so you can also do this if you don't want to install as root:
$ mkdir ~/bin $ ln -s /path/to/your/pd ~/bin/pd
Cheers,
Chris.
