No, don't put anything besides pd, pdsend and pdreceive in /usr/bin
The two 'official' places are /usr/lib/pd/externs and /usr/lib/pd/extra,
[if someone could explain the difference, I'd like to know why there are
two standard directories in the PD distribution.]
But you can also put them in any directory, that you have in you
"pd-path", i.e. all directories after the "-dir" command line of conf. file
option of PD.
The PD path has nothing to do with the standard search patch for executable
binaries i.e. the environment variable PATH that you see with "echo $PATH"
ciao,
