Hi,
A friend of mine has a dual-boot Mac with Mac OS and Ubuntu and uses Ubuntu very sporadically.
On Ubuntu, she has Pd-Extended installed which was installed more than a year ago and worked just fine the last-but-one time she booted Ubuntu.
Now after more than a year since last time, she booted Ubuntu, she didn't touch anything, and now Pd-Extended refuses to run, it says:
/usr/lib/pd-extended/bin/pd-gui: error while loading shared libraries: libtk8.5.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The only way anything can be uninstalled or changed is through automatic updates.
Does anybody know how the needed library can have just disappeared and how to fix it? A package named "libtk" doesn't even seem to exist...
thanks m.
Try:
sudo apt-get install tk8.5

Yes thanks that solved the libtk error, now there are other libraries that it cannot find. I'll figure out one by one and install them
What seems strange to me is that these libraries which were formerly present have misteriously disappeared....

Try:
sudo apt-get -f install
-f means "fix", at least in my head :)

It says 0 installed, 0 removed and 6 not upgraded..... but Pd still complains about missing libraries (one by one, regretfully)
Or did you mean sudo apt-get -f install _something_?
Indeed I even tried to reinstall Pd:
sudo apt-get install pd-extended
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done pd-extended is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 6 not upgraded.
Shouldn't it find the missing dependencies????

You could try installing puredata to get it's dependencies installed.
Could be you need to install tk8.5 manually.

I tried installing pd-extended, but it didn't install the dependencies.

Yes. I've installed every dependency manually; then it complains for the next dependency and so on.
Finally I think I got everything installed, seems to work now.
But I don't understand why it doesn't detect and install the dependencies automatically, that's all apt-get is (supposed to be) about...
