hi,

this is an excellent howto for gentoo users, i just did the install following these steps and it was wonderful... thanks for that aym3ric

just some things to contribute to it...

• need to do # emerge lame

before doing the ffmpeg install (since we are calling --enable mp3lame --enable vorbis in the ./configure for ffmpeg)

• emerge avifile had a few dependencies and so it does an emerge ffmpeg if you

haven't already emerged it.

so what i did is this:

# emerge unmerge ffmpeg # make install (in my ffmpeg-cvs directory) # merge inject media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.7 (installs a stub so portage thinks its there still)

so far i havent seen any problems with this method, but not sure what will happen since i did it just 5 minutes ago... pd/pdp/pidip & Gem _seems_ to be ok ;)

• also for pidip install, i had to do: # cp fonts/* /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF

cheers,

naveen

Pure-Data / Gem / PDP-PiDiP / PF on a gentoo box.

step by step howto (according you already have alsa...) 24/08/04 - v.1.0

-- Changes

v.1.0 - first version, probably the last.

-- Notes

everything should be fine :) you may have already some deps installed.

** Pure-Data

-- some deps for pd to compile and run

# emerge jack-audio-connection-kit # emerge tk (it will get tcl as well as dep)

-- creating a common install directory

% cd ~ % mkdir pure-data % cd pure-data

-- downloading the pd sources and extract

% wget http://www-crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Software/pd-0.37-4.src.tar.gz % tar xzvf pd-0.37-4.src.tar.gz % cd pd-0.37-4/src

-- configuration and compilation

# ./configure --enable-jack && make && make install

** PDP & PF

-- some deps

# emerge gsl # emerge libquicktime

-- downloading the sources

% cd ~/pure-data % cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@zwizwa.fartit.com:/usr/local/cvsroot login % cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@zwizwa.fartit.com:/usr/local/cvsroot co libtile libpdp pdp

-- configuration and compilation

% cd ~/pure-data/libtile # ./bootstrap && ./configure && make && make install % cd ~/pure-data/libpdp # ./bootstrap && ./configure && make all_install % cd ~/pure-data/pdp % autoconf % ./configure --enable-mmx --enable-pwc --enable-pf (mmx and pwc are optional) # make && make install

** PiDiP

-- some deps

# emerge imagemagick # emerge imlib2 # emerge libtheora

-- ffmpeg -- we need to do something here if you want to keep the ffmpeg ebuild from portage

# emerge ffmpeg % cp /usr/portage/distfiles/ffmpeg-0.4.7.tar.gz ~/pure-data % cd ~/pure-data % tar xzf ffmpeg-0.4.7.tar.gz % cd ffmpeg-0.4.7 % ./configure --enable-mp3lame --enable-vorbis % make

-- downloading the sources

% cd ~/pure-data % wget http://ydegoyon.free.fr/pidip-0.12.16.tar.gz % tar xzf pidip-0.12.16.tar.gz

-- configuration and compilation

% cd pidip-0.12.16 % ./configure --with-pd=../pd-0.37-4/ --with-pdp=../pdp/libpdp --with-ffmpeg=../ffmpeg-0.4.7 % make # cp pidip.pd_linux /usr/local/lib/pd/extra # cp doc/* /usr/local/lib/pd/doc/5.reference

** Gem

-- some deps

# emerge glut # emerge tiff # emerge jpeg # emerge freetype # emerge gltt # emerge libquicktime (already there with pdp) # emerge mpeg-lib # emerge libmpeg3 # emerge avifile

-- downloading the sources

% cd ~/pure-data % wget http://gem.iem.at/download/gem-0.90.0.tgz % tar xzf gem-0.90.0.tgz % wget http://gem.iem.at/download/GemLibs-linux-1.tgz % tar xzf GemLibs-linux-1.tgz

-- configuration and compilation

% cd gem-0.90.0/src/Gnu % ./makeauxlibs % ./configure % make # make install && make installdocs

now create a .pdrc file in your home dir and add at least those lines -path /usr/local/lib/pd/extra -lib pdp:pidip:Gem
