[PD-dev] compiling pd_devel_0.38 on sarge

[B. Bogart]

Hi,

I installed devel into /usr/local/bin/pd Millers is in /usr/bin/pd

I have a copy of the 38-4 source (same version as my package) in my home
directory used to compile non-packaged stuff from cvs.

Anyhow devel still does not load any externals, does look in the right
place but cannot find any of the *_setup functions. Nothing else stands
out in the -verbose output. I've been doing "./bootstrap.sh && autoconf
&& ./configure && make clean && make" each time...
