And I recently found, but never tried, this: http://www.dynebolic.org/
selfbooting live-cd with included audio streamer, Pd, ...

But there already is Pd-GEM included ;)

Speaking of Pd, I see on
http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/soundapps.html that
this is slightly out of date (it's 0.35, 0.36 now has Undo!) but
that's not my point. 

I don't know, if you know our Pd External Repository on SouceForge
(pure-data.sf.net). It includes a whole bunch of externals and also
some important libraries like zexy and ggee. The end goal is, to have
installable packages ready sometime. 'Project leader' is Guenther
Geiger, and he - as a kind of Debian guy - already made some scripts
to build Debs from the externals. 

I could figure, that rpm's would be a cool thing to add and personally
I would find it wonderful to have rpm-scripts (specs? or what's it
called) inside the repository as well (Guenther, you're listening? What
do you think?) 

Anyway, you are of course encouraged to use the repository as a source
for Planet's Pd-externals. (But beware, that the developers' branch of
Pd itself can be quite unstable) 

ciao
