hi
i think it depends on where pd itself is: if it's in /usr/local/bin it
will check /usr/local/lib/pd/extra, but if it's in /usr/bin it will look
in /usr/lib/pd/extra. just add /usr/local/lib/pd/extra to your path
and it will always be checked.

BTW, I also tried [declare] with an absolute path, naming "-lib
comport" specifically, and it wouldn't load.

Hello.
I'm once again trying to control my school's Moog with Pd, this time
going with the serial port on my new laptop.
I downloaded and compiled the [comport] external. I moved the file
comport.pd_linux to /usr/local/lib/pd/extra. If I open the
comport-help file, which I moved to the same folder, it opens fine.
However, if I start a new patch and add a [comport] object, it is
unable to load. Why does [comport] not load, while [expr] and its
cousins do? Does Pd not check /usr/local/lib/pd/extra?
Thanks.
