HI,
I use Pure data on linux fedora with the Planet CCRMA pakages ...
My version of Pd is 0.37 and I have download pd-extended (0.38) from
(http://pure-data.sourceforge.net/download.php) as a linux binary package...
the instruction for installation is :

make install

but I have some externals that I have compiled and install in
/usr/lib/pd/extra and I don't want to erase them but do the "make install"
command ...

Should I uninstall Pd 0.37 before do the make install of pd-extended-0.38 ?
(yum remove pd (on fedora))

In fact, my question is How to updrade my version of pd with the package
that i've download without erase the previous installed externals ? and I
also want to know how can I use the externals of pd-extended-0.38 without
having conflits with the same externals (how could exist in my previous
external directory of the previous pd version /usr/lib/pd/extra/)


Thanks a lot.
