[PD-dev] Pd 0.48 app bundle without src dir

[Miller Puckette]

I think that means that I would have to switch from my bare source release
style to releasing an autotools-source-release.  And then anyhow throwing
the autotools-source-release into the compiled releases.

cheers

In this case, one option is to leave everything in a source directory as suggested and then have a separate installer script which puts things into the right place. IMO it's easier to let configure/make do their jobs and extra stuff like this is better handled by installing into a temp directory and/or using a script to put things "in the right place".
