Hi, I've just installed Debian Wheezy amd64, but I can't be able to find a compiled Pd-Extended version for Debian 64-bit.
I checked in:
http://puredata.info/community/projects/software/pd-extended
http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/

and in the puredata repo, but I only found i386 versions.

Am I missing something?

thanks

Nicola

** EDIT ** I created an UPDATED version on this wiki page with steps to follow. Here:

I think simply there is no packaged version.

I actually managed to build the source partly following the instructions found here:
http://puredata.info/docs/developer/Debian and thanks to the script in the scripts directory in the source package - credit really goes to the authors of these

with some modifications and additions:
---- WARNING. Pretty much untested. Pd starts, no libraries complain, audio and a bunch of patches I have work with alsa and jack ----

• Add the debian multimedia repository as explained directly on their page:
  http://debian-multimedia.org/

• Do the build-dep as explained but with a slight modification

  apt-get build-dep puredata gem pd-pdp

(notice pd-pdp non not pdp)

• Install the following packages not listed on that page:

  apt-get install libmp3lame0 libmp3lame-dev ladspa-sdk dssi-dev libimlib2-dev libtheora-dev

• Install libquicktime1 and libquicktime-dev from the official main packages *not* with apt. The links:
  http://packages.debian.org/testing/libs/libquicktime1
  http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/libquicktime-dev

• Get the source of Pd-extended, unpack anywere as explained in other places..

• from the main source directory go to source dir for pidip:

  cd externals/pidip/

• configure and make pidip with the following switches:

  ./configure --with-pd=../../pd --with-pdp=../pdp
  make

• chdir to scripts/auto-build/ from the source dir:

  cd scripts/auto-build/

• Start the ./pd-extended-auto-builder.sh script:

  ./pd-extended-auto-builder.sh

• Wait...

• Cross fingers...

• Ignore some scary messages...
  If everything went well there should be a message saying you have a deb in dir ./packages/linux_make/Pd-0.42.5-extended.deb (still from the source root):

• cd there:

  cd ../../packages/linux_make/

• Finally install:

  dpkg -i Pd-0.42.5-extended.deb

By the way I got a nice .deb so maybe I could put it up somewhere, not sure about the dependencies though.

Hope this helps,
Lorenzo

Thank you Lorenzo, I will try it!
