Pd Installers

I work on these distros whenever I have time, here and there, generally in bursts of a couple weeks every few months. All of my work in GPL'ed and in the CVS, so if you want something fixed or done, its possible to do it yourself. That is what I did with these installers, building upon the work of so many others. It is also possible to sponsor me to fix things.

I'd definitely work on this more if I could get a little money to do it. Then I wouldn't have to do other freelance jobs. No amount is too small, anything is appreciated. If I got $1 from each downloader, I would be very happy.

Final Releases

This page is for test releases, which means they are likely to have problems. Unless you need the latest-greatest, or just want to help test (thanks!), you should download the latest stable release from one of the sources below:

• Stable Pd-extended releases: http://puredata.info/downloads
• Miller Puckette's releases: http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html

Pd-extended Test Releases

Just make a quick and dirty release of Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1.app for Mac OS X. Much work to be done, but its a start. Basically minimal changes from Pd-0.38.4-extended, just enough to get it to build.

Downloads

GNU/Linux

• Download: Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1-linux-i686.tar.bz2
• compiled to install into /usr/local
• you can install elsewhere, but then you need to always start Pd in its bin dir with ./pd in order for it to find all its stuff

To install:
tar xjf Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1-linux-i686.tar.bz2
cd Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1-linux-i686
make install prefix=/usr/local

To uninstall:
make uninstall prefix=/usr/local

Mac OS X

• Download: Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1.dmg
• To install, drag the Pd.app anywhere on your your hard drive.
• For newbies: to install support for Gem, pmpd, xsample, vasp, etc., copy the included org.puredata.pd.plist to ~/Library/Preferences (~ means your home folder). If you already have preferences saved, this would replace them.
• This version now includes all of the needed libs (mp3lame, ogg, vorbis, flac, speex, etc.)

Windows

I currently don't have access to a Windows box, coming soon...

Things seem to be working fine. Try things out and post to the list when things are broken. If I don't hear of any problems, I'll make this the release and stick it on the SourceForge page.
