oh my.
you really shouldn't install packages from "unstable" onto your
"stretch" installation.
simply wait for the packages to appear in stretch-backports, and install
from there. it's probably another 3 days to wait.

(alternatively, you can upgrade your entire system to "Debian/unstable";
those distro releases are really there to guarantee you a consistent system)

that's because the "puredata" is just a meta-package that depends on the
actual packages puredata-core and puredata-gui (and doesn't provide any
functionality on it's own).
even worse, the "puredata" package is happy if any version of
puredata-core and puredata-gui are installed (even if it is just 0.47).
