Well sorry for the noise and answering myself (but it seems this pops up
every now and then so might be good to write it up).
Thanks to Roman who gave me in IRC the right pointer to look further
into network issues...

This seems to be an persisting [1][2][3] problem I had already encountered:
All of a sudden I'm experiencing this again. I haven't changed or

Well I should have recalled better, :) actually I *had* installed wicd
replacing network-manager, eventually reinstalling it trying to get a
wifi connection to work (another story) and somehow
/etc/network/interfaces was all commented including the loopback part:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
This means you have no localhot, which is what Pd tries to connect to,
thus the hanging and failure.
Uncommenting those lines solved the problem.
Yawn,
Lorenzo.

Running with -nogui pd seems to start ok.
This is with various versions of 0.43 (vanilla fresh compiled, debian
packaged puredata, pd-extended latest autobuild).
So it probably depends form something (tcl?) in the system, but what?
I tried reinstalling tcl and tk but to no avail.
Help please, I really need Pd in this moment!
Thanks
Lorenzo
