Luckily there is a hell of a lot more to Pd than the extended distro. Try one of those options?

To whom it may concern,
Some time ago I was explained the issues of why FTGL libs was not included GEM for the extended OSX release of PD. The answer did not make me any wiser. The conclusion was "Compile it yourself". Its a shame that such a great tool (as GEM could be) is falling into the shade by elitist attitude. Bugger, time to switch.

I'm afraid claiming elitism is a bit like crying "wolf" in this situation. Perhaps you have a unique problem, meaning that your system is set up in a way that other people's aren't, and the only solution to this would be to "compile it". No one else can do it for you in such a situation, unless they're sitting in front of your system. Some of us do make housecalls, BTW, and usually for a reasonable price ;-)
The PD community has always had a strong Do It Yourself ethic. And it is free software, where you are your own helpdesk. Compiling isn't difficult or elitist. I was an artist with no background in computer programming whatsoever when I came to PD, and it didn't take that long to get the hang of it.
configure make make install
And if something goes wrong, copy the error into Google, where thousands of people have probably asked the same question already

Did you try the CVS version?

The GEM version in PD Extended is 0.91-cvs, so maybe you'll have some luck with that.
good luck, d.
