I’m just wondering if anyone can tell me the version number of Pure Data that is bundled in the current version of Patchbox OS? I’d rather know before I install, if at all possible!
I see that the docs say v0.50, but that’s rather dated now so I’m hoping it’s been updated…
As Patchbox OS is currently based on the bookworm Debian release, the Pure Data package matches what’s available on Debian:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&keywords=puredata
There’s also an updated package available in bookworm-backports repositories, which is supposed to be compatible with bookworm. You can get that installed according to these instructions:
https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
TLDR:
echo deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bookworm-backports.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y -t bookworm-backports puredata
