Building Pd-extended on Debian/Ubuntu is pretty straightforward, so you
could just roll your own package.  The directions are here:
 
http://puredata.info/docs/developer/Debian

After you've installed the deps, just 'apt-get remove tk-dev tcl-dev
tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev"  then "apt-get install tcl8.5-dev tk8.5-dev" and
build it.
