Zero results

I currently experience a Deken completely disfunctional. When entering a search term, the results stay empty.

When starting up I see three lines in the console related to deken loading:

deken-plugin.tcl (Pd externals search) in /home/max/pd-externals loaded.
'deken-plugin.tcl' already loaded, ignoring: '/usr/lib/pd/extra/deken-plugin/deken-plugin.tcl'
'deken-plugin.tcl' already loaded, ignoring: '/home/max/pd-externals/deken-plugin.tcl'

what's the output at the Pd-console (with verbosity ALL) and on the terminal?

you should have a line like the following, near the top of the Pd-console (right after all automatically loaded externals appeared; but before any automatically loaded gui-plugins)

Loading plugin: /usr/lib/puredata/tcl/pd_deken.tcl

what's the version of the deken-plugin found in /home/max/pd-externals ?
(very old versions of deken might unconditionally override the built-in version)
most probably you ought to remove that leftover version.

Right! Switched to debug level 4 (all) and saw the Deken plugin loading

Loading plugin: /home/max/Code/pd-0.48-0/tcl/pd_deken.tcl
[deken] Platform detected: Linux-x86_64-64bit

and then loading again from /home/max/pd-externals.
After deleting this later version I get a functional Deken plugin again.
Thank you.

It still loads another one

deken-plugin.tcl (Pd externals search) in /usr/lib/pd/extra/deken-plugin loaded.
Platform detected: Linux-x86_64-64bit

I probably should delete this one too, but then I loose Deken in older versions of Pd..
How to find out the version of the Dekens?

[umlaeute]

they should be reported, like.

Loading plugin: /usr/lib/puredata/tcl/pd_deken.tcl
[deken] Platform detected: Linux-x86_64-64bit
...
Loading plugin: /usr/lib/pd/extra/deken-plugin/deken-plugin.tcl
[deken]: installed version [0.2.3] > 0.2.1...skipping!

to manually check, look for the versioncheck line
