secondly, why audacity from aur?
Is our audacity from extra broken?
From what i see, audacity from extra is compiled using their internal ffmpeg version. I have Audacity from extra, audacity-1.3.13-1. I attempt to export to WMA, and it states that I need an FFMPEG library configured in
preferences. I check preferences, and it's not configured, and it demands libavformat.so.52, which does not appear to be available at all. J.E.B.
If you want external ffmpeg, add --with-ffmpeg to configure
J.E.B.

I tried every combination of repo and AUR versions of Audacity, FFMPEG, and LibAV libraries, and I was not able to find a way to give Audacity the file named libavformat.so.52 which it wants to much. So far as I have been able to tell, all of the versions of FFMPEG and LibAV either don't compile or produce libavformat.so.53, which the available versions of Audacity won't touch.
Anyone have a solution? I would try Ubuntu deb's, but I am concerned with introducing more conflicts instead of eliminating just one! have you actually tried to recompile audacity?
