    • USE THIS TO:
      • Gain access to various useful abstractions commonly used inside L2Ork-specific patches
      • Ensure 100% compatibility with L2Ork environment

1 These are continually evolving, so please make sure to communicate questions/concerns on the Pd-L2Ork google group.

Install Instructions for Linux OS

IMPORTANT! All Pd-l2Ork installer tarballs use unique identifiers/paths, so they should coexist happily next to other installs of Pd. This, however, also means that they may not be able to find externals belonging to other preexisting Pd installs and that is a good thing since Pd-l2Ork changes some of the files externals may rely upon and as such mixing Pd-l2Ork with externals from other Pd iterations may result in unexpected crashes and instabilities. Therefore, to ensure maximum stability please couple Pd-L2Ork only with externals provided on this page or recompile your own making sure you are referencing appropriate source files.

Pd-L2Ork 2.x installer should co-exist happily alongside both Pd and Purr-Data, with the exception of Linux where, pending updates in the Purr-Data source, both share the pd-l2ork executable and its paths.

To manually install a deb version (the old way), simply double-click on the downloaded deb file or type the following command in the terminal from the folder where the downloaded deb file is located:

sudo dpkg -i pd-l2ork*deb

This will install all the supporting libraries, warn you of any conflicts with other packages (e.g. pd-utils), as well as set up pd-l2ork on your machine.

If you encounter errors due to missing packages, this is most likely because you do not have all the supporting libraries. You can correct this easily by running the following command:

sudo apt-get -f install

If everything goes well, you will be presented with an option of installing a collection of packages. Please review that you are ok with installing/removing suggested packages and if so, press “Y” to continue. Once this process is complete, pd-l2ork should be installed and ready for use.

Once install process is complete, to run Pd-l2ork simply click on the application shortcut or type:

pd-l2ork
On Linux, if you have the shortcut placed in the launcher, right-clicking on the shortcut will provide you with additional options.

Building Pd-L2Ork from Source
