thanks for the detailed info.

this package is fine; you should be able to install both puredata and
pd-extended side-by-side (but read on)

that's the main culprit:
"puredata" recommends to install "gem", whereas "pd-extended" conflicts
with "gem" (nowadays for no apparant reason)

until hans fixes the conflicts, you could simply do as follows:

% dpkg -i Pd-extended...deb
% aptitude install -R puredata

or if you insist in using apt-get

% apt-get install --no-install-recommends puredata


i usually recommend aptitude;  it is compatible with apt-get in most
situations, but has better conflict-resolving features and a nice
ncurses gui; this is very handy for manual conflict resolving; you would
have seen immediately why pd-extended gets uninstalled...

that's it.
