[PD] [PD-announce] PuREST JSON 1.4.2 "Argo in shipyard" released

[Jack]

Hello Claude,

Thanks for these explanations.
So according to :
$ apt-cache show pd-purest-json | grep -e ^Depends -e ^Recommends

pd-purest-json only depends on :
- libc6
- libcurl3-gnutls
- libjson-c3
- liboauth0
- puredata-core or pd

On my system, pd is in /usr/local and sources are in my home, maybe
there is a possibility to tell to apt to use the source of Pd in my home
to install pd-purest-json. I understand this is not the regular way to
install package but if can do it without to install all dependancies, i
will give it a try.

Or, maybe, i can install puredata-core without deps. In this case, how i
can do that ?

Thanx for help.
++

Jack
