On Linux it's most common for your compiled binaries to be installed
to /usr/local. I recommend you keep this default, because if you
ever want to remove the version you created you can do it without
messing with your all-important /usr folder.<br>
<br>
Ubuntu looks for binaries in /usr/local/bin before it tries
/usr/bin. That means that your compiled 0.46-7 should be the
preferred version.<br>
<br>
You can double check this with:<br>
$ echo $PATH<br>
<br>
you should get something like
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:
etc., meaning the OS will check the local folders first<br>
<br>
If you launch pd from the terminal, does it launch the new version?<br>
<br>
To get the menu launcher right, you probably need to edit
/usr/share/applications/puredata.desktop (or pd.desktop or whatever
it's called) to point to the right binary file in /usr/local/bin<br>

<div>I know very little about Linux, but I know that when you
compile software, the binary (or is it just a symlink to the
binary?) is installed in /usr/local/bin, not /usr/bin.<br>

Why do you have problems with externals? Can't you set their
path in Pd's preferences?<br>

Could I simply move the pd folder to the old directory

that cause problems?<br>

I'm still having lots of problems with externals that I
installed via deken.<br>
Doesn't look like I can get my old stuff running that was
originally created<br>
with Pd-Extended.<br>

Hmmm!<br>
