so what you suggest for a successfull pd installation on a ubuntu  
machine is to download this:
http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/pd-2006-12-04-linux- 
debian-stable-i386-i686.tar.bz2

and then run

tar xjf pd-2006-12-04-linux-debian-stable-i386-i686.tar.bz2
cd pd-2006-12-04-linux-debian-stable-i386-i686
make install prefix=/usr/local

and then it should run with Gem like
./pd -lib Gem

?
