Hello everybody.
With UBUNTU 7.10 GUSTY (i386) I'm trying to install Pd-0.39.3 extended-debian-testing-i386.dep. Unfortunately I get the error libjack0.100.0-0 library not found. Serving in the internet I couldn't get the right way to resolve the problem.
Hopefully somebody out there knows how to....

This ones definitely a FAQ. I don't have the answer to hand but please search the forum mate, you'll find your answer.

(basically: update libjack)

Fine but where in this forum I find the FAQ. Also searching with the keyword "libkack" I don't get reults.
Thanks

you might check ubuntustudio.org, since those guys are sound on ubuntu 24-7. The problem might be that your pd is looking for a more bleedy edge jackd package than ubuntu has in its base repositories.

this might not be what you want to hear at this point, but I've had real good luck with fedora8, and I was an ubuntu user. on FC8, you've got PlanetCCRMA repos(http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/) which have the newest jack, PD, and a crap ton of PD extern libraries preconfigured. Fedora's got Yumex, which is similar to the synaptic package manager. FC is a bit more command-liny than ubuntu. YMMV, yknow?

have you checked ubuntustudio.org? they're solving these problems and repackaging the whole distro.

I personally use fedoracore8, since planetCCRMA does jack and pulseaudio and pd and everything else I could ever need. check it out! http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/

Thanks but all this did'nt slove the problem. When I try to install Pd with in a terminal with the command:
sudo dpkg -i Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc4-debian-stable-i386.deb

may be a silly question, but do you have all those packages installed?

to be sure you could do:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install jackd qjackctl tcl8.4 tk8.4 libflac8 libpng3 libmpeg1 libmpeg2-4 libmpeg3-1 libquicktime1 libimlib2 libmagick++9c2a

I would also try the debian testing / ubuntu gutsy package, instead of the debian stable package. the deb for stable seems to be calling for different package versions than you have in gutsy.

dpkg is also not as smart as newer tools like aptitude and synaptic. if the above does not work, I believe there is a way to add a deb file to the repo list in synaptic; somewhere in the repositories tab if I remember right. if you install from there, maybe synaptic will sort out the library versions it needs.

hope this helps

Your help pointed to the right way. I did what you recomanded and to get all right I had to use the command: sudo apt-get -f install.
Finally using the "GDebi package installer" Pd is now correctly installed.
Thanks for the help

Ops, to fast.
The "GDebi package installer" did not show any error when installing the Pd package I still can't lunch the programm.
Nothing happens at all...

hey drumanart

try lauching pd from the terminal and see if it prints out any error messages.

Solution found.
Using this gide http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-10/055477.html to install Pd I'm finally able to run PD. Great, now I have to solve onely problems with my DELTA 1010 sound card.
I installed the driver 'oss-linux_v4.0-1013_i386', but I can't get any sound out of it. Probably there is a conflict with the Asla mixer.
Do you have any idea?
Thks for the help Martin
