Just for clarification. I made a /home/julian/.local/lib/pd/extra/ directory, clicked on a lib via deken, dl'd it, and all works lovely (apart from having libs scattered across my computer:) Julian On 7 April 2017 at 23:45, Julian Brooks wrote: > Apologies IOhannes, I was a little hasty with m

> Brilliant that deken can sort all this very soon maybe for linux? how is it? you cant write externals in the application specific folder so it'll offer that one and write it? since you can write externals in the application specific folder in mac, it won't offer it, and maybe that could happen

Oups sorry: "I'm not familiar enough with other linux flavours to know this but certainly on debian I have no other ~/.folders on my system, even though the non-hidden path already exists via the apt install (and there's a ton of other programs' 'stuff' in /usr/lib/)." is obviously incorrect, I was

Hi Roman, Yeah, I'd spotted the ~/.local/lib/pd/extra as being canonical from an earlier thread but as 1. I didn't already have that folder 2. historically (dangerous I know) the non-hidden path had always been 'the place' for externals, so I just blithely carried on regardless - ouch(blush). All

2017-04-06 Thread Julian Brooks
Hi all, Just to add a little more noise to the ongoing debate... What's the canonical/most-favoured approach here for Debian (Linux in general I suppose). I want my externals in usr/lib/pd/extra but installing via Deken I don't have permission to install there - tbh so far, I've just installed v
