[arch-general] No FFMPEG/LibAV for Audacity?
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! -- Jonathan E.

have you actually tried to recompile audacity? -- Ionuț
Yes, via AUR. The AUR version recompiled fine, but in the preferences when run, it says that it is compiled without FFMPEG support. J.E.B.

firstly, stop top posting, you broke the reading flow. 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. If you want external ffmpeg, add --with-ffmpeg to configure

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.

Fixed in audacity-1.3.13-2. Next time open a bug on the bug tracker.

Hey, you could have just pacman -S abs and executed the abs script. Then you could have copied the directory in /var/abs/extra/audacity to the build folder in your ~, which is preferably in ~/abs. In said directory there's a PKGBUILD which lets you rebuild the exact [extra] package yourself. Source [1]. cheers! mar77i [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS
