Pd-extended 0.42.5 is done, so it'll stay as is. Pd-extended 0.43 will work with /usr/lib/pd. For 0.43, only libs that require Pd- extended will be installed into /usr/lib/pdextended.

Yeah, makes sense also to me.

and ignores /usr/lib/pd.

Why?

You seem to ignore the fact, that there are pd-libs around in the wild,
that are _not_ part of Pd-extended and thus would be very useful to be
used together with Pd-extended, but unfortunately do not work
out-of-the-box, because pdextended doesn't look in /usr/lib/pd.

I'd propose to add /usr/lib/pd as the last path in the search order, so
that it wouldn't interfere with everything installed
in /usr/lib/pd-extended. I don't see how this would hurt with the
current behaviour. When having pd-motex installed and using some objects
from motex, still /usr/lib/pd-extended would be used (instead
of /usr/lib/pd, where pd-motex installs to). Nevertheless, [wiimote]
from pd-wiimote which installs to /usr/lib/pd would be found.

Please enlighten me, if I am overseeing something and my proposal would
actually break something.

The next step for Debian packaging for Pd-extended is having each lib
in its own package, and then making a 'pdextended' package which
provides 'pd' and is just the core. That will then look in /usr/ lib/pd.

Hi Hans

As there seems to be some agreement now on the debian pkg-multimedia
mailing list, that pd-lib packages are installed to /usr/lib/pd, I'd
propose to add /usr/lib/pd/extra/ to the hard-coded search pathes of
this release. OTOH, /usr/local/lib/pd-externals was never really used
and - I believe - can be removed.

It would be great if this Pd-extended release would be compatible with
future debian pd-lib packages. Already today it would enable many
packages from personal package archives to be easily used together
with
Pd-extended.

What do you think?

Ok, fixed the show stopper bug, so I think this really is the one!
Unless someone finds a critical bug, this version will be the final
release. That means test all of your patches, especially GOP GUIs.
We've fixed a number of bugs related to GOP, so it should be much
more stable. Also included:

* a couple PDP and PiDiP fixes.
* ekext help/examples fixes
* iemlib/soundfile_info works now

There are of course many bug fixes and additions since 0.41.4, here
are some highlights:

* fixing Graph-On-Parent GUI bugs
* complete 64-bit support for GNU/Linux
* full support for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (32-bit)
* a brand new Help Browser that shows all installed libraries
