and this got me through the ./config process.
Eventually, I managed to make and make-install file by hacking the install
dirs and making them correspond to my install dirs. So, I ended up having
/usr/local/pd/ folder with all binaries (except obviously for pd, which was
put into /usr/local/bin/ and having Gem.pd-linux executable in the
./externs/ lib. (Gem compiled without any errors)
So, now when I run pd -lib /path/to/gem/externs/Gem (I tried Gem.pd-linux at
the end instead of Gem as well), I get the following output:
<prompt>$ pd -lib ./externs/Gem (assuming I am in the pd-install dir)
successfully opened /dev/dsp write-only
successfully reopened /dev/dsp read/write
OSS: sampling rate: wanted 44100, got 44101
OSS: sampling rate: wanted 44100, got 44101
/usr/local/pd/./externs/Gem.pd_linux: /usr/local/pd/./externs/Gem.pd_linux:
undefined symbol: OpenMPEG__FP8_IO_FILEP9ImageDesc
./externs/Gem: can't load library
Can anyone tell me what the heck does this mean and how can I potentially
fix this? :-) Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, I'd like to
suggest if maybe we could start a new thread where we would discuss install
experiences and maybe Linux install instructions itemized by the "flavor"
(i.e. Redhat) and version of Linux used by polling all of our experiences in
one huge database. If something like this has already been done, I sincerely
apologize for posting redundant suggestions. Thank you in advance for all
your help! Sincerely,
