hi
I am running Ubuntu Xenial with Pd 0.46.7 and I wanted to check if there was an update but it seems like the Xenial repo is not available any longer.
$ sudo aptitude update
Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial InRelease
Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial Release Err http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main amd64 Packages 404 Not Found Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main i386 Packages Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main all Packages Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main Translation-eu_ES Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main Translation-eu Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main Translation-en Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main amd64 DEP-11 Metadata Ign http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial/main DEP-11 64x64 Icons W: The repository 'http://apt.puredata.info/releases xenial Release' does not have a Release file.
is this install method not working and PD needs to be compile from source? https://puredata.info/docs/faq/debian
thanks!

Are you trying to install pd vanilla or extended? As stated on that page, the repos were for pd-extended. Vanilla should be in standard Ubuntu repos already, though I believe 0.46.7 may be the most current release available there. Since pd-extended is somewhat deprecated now it is stuck somewhere around 0.43, so you will definitely not get updates searching for that.

OMG! sorry, I made a mess... I had forgotten about the fact that before summer I did try to install extended but then I finally installed vanilla. I never removed the repos from the apt system. Now in my messy head both got mixed. thanks!
