[PD] drag and drop - tkdnd on osx

[hi]

Hi

what a great Plugin!!!

only i don’t get it to work. None of the features work for me on Pd 0.49.0 on OSX 10.11.6.
I get this error in Pds console:

-
Drag and Drop on Window
Drag and Drop on Canvas
Usage:
See /Volumes/DATA/uni/pd/externals/GUI-plugins/dnd-testing-plugin/dnd-plugin-help.pd
-
-----------
UNHANDLED ERROR: couldn't read file "/Volumes/DATA/uni/pd/externals/GUI-plugins/dnd-testing-plugin/tkdnd/pkgIndex.tcl": no such file or directory
    while executing
"source [file join $dir pkgIndex.tcl]"
    ("uplevel" body line 19)
    invoked from within
"uplevel #0 $tclcode"
FAILED TO LOAD /Volumes/DATA/uni/pd/externals/GUI-plugins/dnd-testing-plugin/dnd-testing-plugin.tcl
—————

Am i doing something wrong? Somehow i feel like something fundamental is wrong on my computer, like settings have to be deleted or something, but this is just a feeling.

Best,

Jonas
