I’m trying to install the latest and greatest on a C.H.I.P using a package manager. I followed these instructions to add the puredata` repo: https://puredata.info/docs/faq/debian https://puredata.info/docs/faq/debian
but when I simulate the install with:
apt-get -s install puredata
it appears that I would be installing 0.46: Conf puredata-gui (0.46.2-1 Debian:8.6/stable [all]) Conf puredata-doc (0.46.2-1 Debian:8.6/stable [all]) Conf puredata-extra (0.46.2-1 Debian:8.6/stable [armhf]) Conf puredata-utils (0.46.2-1 Debian:8.6/stable [armhf]) Conf puredata-dev (0.46.2-1 Debian:8.6/stable [all]) Conf puredata (0.46.2-1 Debian:8.6/stable [all])
Is 47 available via apt, or is 46 the latest I can get through this method?
Thanks,
Peter

certainly Pd-0.47 is available via the official Debian apt repositories.
but Debian/jessie (aka stable) has been released 2015-04, when the current Pd version was 0.46. so in order to use the 0.47 packages, you need to do a system upgrade to stretch (currently testing).
you *might* have luck with manually downloading/installing the stretch packages¹ on your jessie system (totally untested; also, i would *not* recommend adding stretch to your apt-sources, as the entire C++ stack has changed and you might just blow your system).

PS: and not to forget: i have posted instructions to this list numerous times, how to build your own debs (based on the original Debian packages) for your odd system (e.g. raspberries running jessie) - which happens to also work in your case!
