Hi Everybody,

This is my first post, please bear with me.  I'm just learning c/c++, so
I'm a bit at a loss.

I'm having issues installing.  I thought that I had installed correctly and
went on to install py, but when I used the py object, it froze pd.  So, I
deleted everything I'd done and tried again...

I've tried to install based upon the instructions contained in the
build.txt file.  I modified the config-lnx-pd-gcc.txt to point to the pd
header files, the stk files and sndobj files, as requested. My files were
in different locations:

# where is the PD source package?
# (this should point to the main folder, which has a "src" (PD Vanilla) or
"include" (PD extended) subfolder)
PDPATH=/usr/include/pdextended/m_pd.h

###############################################################

# prefix for flext installation
# headers are in $(FLEXTPREFIX)/include/flext
# libraries are in $(FLEXTPREFIX)/lib
# build system is in $(FLEXTPREFIX)/lib/flext

FLEXTPREFIX=/usr/local

###############################################################

# where should the external be built?
OUTPATH=pd-linux

# where should the external be installed?
INSTPATH=/usr/local/lib/pd/extra

###############################################################

# STK (synthesis tool kit) support
# http://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/stk

# where to find the STK header files (e.g. stk.h)
STK_INC=/home/jonathanpivar/Documents/STK/stk-4.4.4/include

# where to find the STK library (normally libstk.a)
# (comment out STK_LIB if you don't use STK)
#STK_LIB=/home/jonathanpivar/Documents/STK/stk-4.4.4/src/libstick.a

###############################################################

# SndObj support
# http://music.nuim.ie//musictec/SndObj

# where to find the SndObj header files (e.g. sndobj.h)
SNDOBJ_INC=/home/jonathanpivar/Documents/SndObj-2.6.7/include/SndObj

# where to find the SndObj library (normally libsndobj.a)
# (comment out STK_LIB if you don't use SndObj)
#SNDOBJ_LIB=/home/jonathanpivar/Documents/SndObj-2.6.7/lib/libsndobj.so

###############################################################

# make flags (e.g. use multiprocessor)
#MFLAGS=-j 2

# user defined compiler flags
# (check if they match your system!)
UFLAGS=-msse -mfpmath=sse -ffast-math
# don't overload new and delete operators
UFLAGS+=-DFLEXT_USE_CMEM

# user defined optimization flags
# (check if they match your system!)
OFLAGS=-O3
# optimizations for Pentium 4
OFLAGS+=-march=pentium4

And, when I try compiling:

jonathanpivar at UbuntuStudioLaptop:~/Documents/PureDataLibraries/PD-Externals/flext$
sudo bash build.sh pd gcc install
make -f ./buildsys/gnumake-sub.mak  PLATFORM=lnx RTSYS=pd COMPILER=gcc
BUILDPATH=./buildsys/ PKGINFO=package.txt BUILDCLASS=flext

make: *** [install-release-single] Error 2

I've gotten as far as I can with the documentation, so I'm here.  Thanks in
advance!  Hopefully, it's something trivial.
