[PD] Mr. Peach missing packOSC/unpackOSC?

Hi Roman,

You're right. Immediately after I sent the email out, I did realize that I
forgot to mention my OS. I'm on Ubuntu 18.04.

I checked and I do have pd-osc installed as well. I tried
[mrpeach/osc/packOSC], but it wouldn't create either. I did manage to get
it working though!

I decided to see if I could find the files for this external via the
terminal:

$ locate packOSC

shows:

/usr/lib/pd/extra/osc/packOSC.pd_linux

So I go into Pd and try [osc/packOSC] and it works! So apparently, Pd
doesn't consider it as being a part of Mr. Peach. I wonder if anyone else
can confirm that this declaration works or doesn't work for them. I would
like my patches to be portable and it would be good to know if this will
present any problems later.
