I ended up with a broken Jack so I could not test this.

OK, still allow me to vent my frustration for a moment: For OS X and 
Windows you get precompiled binaries, while Linux users are expected to 
be almost fully qualified developers just for running an application. I 
mean sure, I can go back to Pd from the repositories (thanks IOhannes 
for the packaging work by the way, we love you). If you are not running 
debian testing but some Ubuntu (-derivate) that's version 0.46.7 of Pd. 
The latest and greatest.

We've talked about this at the convention for a moment, with Liam and me 
describing this Linux user perspective. Remember?

Dan also put in a lot of work into the install.txt to make it easier to 
follow for non-devs. Thanks Dan, we love you too.

(For Ubuntu users,) the next step would be to have a .deb file to 
install, or alternatively a PPA from which I can install a stable, 
testing and daily branch of Pd.

Someone said that setting up a PPA is trivial, so I am eager to try 
this. Actually I was already reading up on it, that's why I tried to 
compile the test version in the first place.
