Hi Daniel, There might be a version mismatch between your liquidsoap binary and your .liq scripts. On my development version, the variable exe_ext isdefined as a builtin (from src/lang/lang_builtins.ml) with its content obtained from src/configure.ml. I didn't check when it appeared exactly, and in which releases it is included.
Anyway, your solution is safe for Ubuntu, and I don't foresee any unwanted side-effect.
