assuming that "extra" packages refer to expr/bonk~/sigmund~/..., these
*are* part of Pd-vanilla.

because you are using an outdated distribution?

afaik, raspbian is based on Debian/wheezy.
now Debian/wheezy has been released 2013-05¹.
Debian releases follow an extended "freeze" period, in which only
bugfixes are accepted in the to-be release (and no new or updated
software can enter the distro).
this boils down to Debian/wheezy only containing Pd-vanilla 0.43.

no.
Debian/jessie (the upcoming release of Debian) *currently* contains
Pd-vanilla 0.45-5 (and if any other Pd-releases are done until the next
Debian-freeze, they will be included).

i have recently sent some instructions on how to (try to) build uptodate
Debian packages for an outdated Debian release on this list (directed at
max). you could try to follow these instructions.

¹ the have been numerous bugfix releases of Debian/wheezy since the
original release, the latest on 2014-04-26; however ,bugfix releases are
just that: they fix bugs. new releases of software packages are not
included.
