hello i am trying to install pd (extended) with extra stuff.
here is the error i get:

 sudo makepkg -i
==> Making package: Pd 0.39.3_extended-1 (Qui Jan  3 23:23:53 BRST 2008)

here is the PKGBUILD file:

build() {
  cd "$startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver"

  ./configure --prefix=/usr
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR="$startdir/pkg" install
}

There is something wrong with the source archive (Pd-0.39.3-extended.tar.bz2) - it doesn't extract properly.

EDIT: Sorry, I guess the problem was on my side - for some reason the file didn't download properly for me.

This is your clue....

PKGBUILD: line 14: cd: /var/abs/local/pd/src/Pd-0.39.3_extended: No such file or directory

Change to:

  cd "$startdir/src/$pkgname-0.39.3-extended"

You got caught out by the forced changing of the dash to an underscore in pkgver.

that worked, now this happened...

PKGBUILD: line 16: ./configure: No such file or directory

Try building the package by hand first (i.e. no PKGBUILD). If you can't get that working then there is no point trying to automate things.

So it appears there is no file called "configure". I have deleted the tarball so I can't check at the moment but you should look at the INSTALL and README files for more clues. There maybe a file called autogen.sh you need to run first.

should i move this topic to PKGBUILDs & ABS Support. i now realize it fits there better, right?

tomk · 2008-01-05 00:28:46

Correct - and done.

When I write a PKGBUILD I am doing this just the way you did. At the stage you are now I consider the directory <abs-tree>/<package>/src and if there is no configure script, there should be

-another build-script
-or at least an INSTALL-file, in which the installation is described.

This should give you som hints to go on. Wish the best!

I tried myself to build the package. It seems to me, the tarball is somewhat broken. At least one file is missing.

The package is definitely broken. The missing file I mentioned above was a minor problem (a missing and undocumented dependency to ladspa).

But there is at least on serious error. When compiling one of the components (zexy) parameters are given to a configure script in a way that leads tothe error, that the compiler flag -O3 is passed directly to configure. Of Course configure known nothing to do with that flag. I wonder how this stuff could ever past some tests before gotten released.

Me too, I need this application for studying. Right now I have pd installed, which is in AUR and works quite well, but I need pd-extended ... I don't know where to start, the INSTALL.txt contains bullshit information from my point of view. Does someone have an idea?

edit: Ok, I'm on it, this is an autoconf thing, never had to deal with such stuff

edit2: Damn f****** s***, this seems to be too hard for me! Please help!

ok, i made a pkgbuild lossly based on this ebuild from the pd-overlay for gentoo (https://pd-overlay.svn.sourceforge.net/ … -r2.ebuild) and the packages/linux_make makefile.

It builds pd-extended from svn, but not all the extensions/externals. It also includes gem 0.91.1.
It is not ready for aur yet (dependencies missing and: how to build gem without pre-installed pd? - etc...), all suggestions welcome:

edit: got it working with the internal build system

PKGBUILD now in AUR (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22509) and builds everything of pd-extended except externals/pdvjtools

Happy holidays!
