When setting up Ubuntu for building I actually needed to install these as dependencies:
puredata, gem
and then I did "make install && make package"

This should work without installing pd and gem (as mentioned in http://puredata.info/docs/developer/BuildingPdExtended):
mkdir ~/auto-build
rsync -av --delete rsync://128.238.56.50/distros/pd-extended/ pd-extended/
~/auto-build/pd-extended/scripts/auto-build/pd-extended-auto-builder.sh

Other than that, I don't know. I suppose understanding the build system could help a lot:
http://puredata.info/docs/developer/PdExtendedBuildSystem

I think the auto-build script used to be used in between of releases, but there is no notion of that now, so I suppose using the auto-build script will give you the latest stable version.
Am I wrong?

Hope it helps.

Before having that feeling, i wanted to reply like this:
This would not fix the error. It is caused by a missing
directory called bonk~ in the source tarball. This
directory and its contents are needed by pd/src/makefile
during build process. The full path of bonk~ should be
.../Pd-0.42.5-extended/pd/extra/bonk~
This is where the makefile expects it to be.

I know 2 possible solutions for this: uncommenting
the line in the makefile which causes the error (which
is not a good choice)
or getting the bonk~ directory from another tarball.

The bonk~ directory is included in the pd-0.42-5.src.tar.gz
tarball. I copied it from there to .../Pd-0.42.5-extended/pd/extra/
After doing that i noticed that the Makefile in packages/linux_make
still didn't work because some other files/directories were still
missing in .../Pd-0.42.5-extended/pd/extra/ so i copied all of
the files from the vanilla tarball to the extended tarball.

But then again the build process stopped with this error:

install -p 
/home/felix/software/slack13.1/Pd-extended/Pd-0.42.5-extended/abstractions/nqpoly/nqpoly~/*.pd
\
                /tmp/pd//usr/lib/pd-extended/extra/nqpoly~
install: cannot stat
`/home/felix/software/slack13.1/Pd-extended/Pd-0.42.5-extended/abstractions/nqpoly/nqpoly~/*.pd':
No such file or directory



2010/9/28 ailo<[email protected]>:
  An obvious suggestion is perhaps to build puredata and install that first.

Hi all,

someone already posted this error when trying to compile
Pd-0.42.5-extended:
make -C ../extra/bonk~
make: Entering an unknown directory
make: *** ../extra/bonk~: No such file or directory.  Stop.

But in the other thread the solution for the guys was to
find a working binary package for their Linux distribution,
which is no option in my case (Slackware).

I already successfully compiled the previous release of Pd-extended
on my system, but this time the process stops after this error.

I tried this without any result:
find<path to pd-extended source code>    -name bonk~

There are a couple of externals depending on bonk~
so i'd like to have it in my build. Is bonk~ included in
the source package and if yes, where? Can i otherwise
download it from any other place?

I think it could be interesting for the comunity, because
if it works on my system i'll release a so called
SlackBuild script on www.slackbuilds.org which makes
it very easy to install on Slackware Linux.

greets
Felix
