Good day.

I'm trying to compile pd-0.46-7 from source, because i can't find it in fedoras package manager, but it is really confusing. The explanations in the official website are outdated by about a million years or so, so i have no idea where, or what i'm doing wrong.

I download the pd-0.46-7.src.tar.gz file
extract it
cd pd-0.46-7
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-jack --enable-alsa

This is where the problem occurs. Even though i add the alsa/jack flags, it configures without alsa, or jack support, it only gives me oss:

Configuration summary

.....
ALSA.................................no
.....
OSS...................................yes
JACK.................................no

Can someone help me out here, i really hate bothering people, but i just can't find any not-outdated directions for this process....

You need to install the development version of alsa and jackd. Usually, if i'm not mistaken, it's something like libasound2-dev and libjack-jackd2-dev.

Thank you for the quick answer, now i have sound!!

For anyone else who will find this thread (and is easily confused like me), on fedora you need to install:

• jack-audio-connection-kit-devel.x86_64 and alsa-lib-devel.x86_64

Then enter the extracted folder in the terminal and write these commands:

• ./autogen.sh
• ./configure --enable-jack --enable-alsa
• make install
