The problem is that I can not remember when/how I have installed Audacity. When I needed it, and I checked, it was already there :). Soon after I have installed Suse 9.1 (a long time ago) I have installed apt and since then I use apt as an upgrade tool. So, it seems Audacity was installed as needed dependency of some package. Now, I can not uninstall it, as it shows up as needed by a lot of other packages (mplayer and some kde packages are in that list). As using apt (stupid me, but all repositories :) ), now I run Kde 3.3.1 ... I can not uninstall it and to try something else without breaking my system. Is this the price to ride on the edge? :)
So, I was hoping that someone who understands can tell me what library or package I'm missing, so I just add it. It looks like that the dependencies included in the Audacity package are not really full, and it does not requre some missing parts. I am just not soo deep in the dev work (under linux) so I can not figure out where and what is broken from the debug output I have.
So, any suggestions about future investigation over my system are really welcome.
Thanks again Sunny
I suggested Audacity before I tried to run it again on my SUSE 9.1 Pro, KDE 3.3.1 setup. It failed just like yours. Don't use Audacity often enough to know when it broke or what broke it. I've since done a fresh install of SUSE 9.2 Pro, KDE 3.3.0 and Audacity 1.2.2 and it starts up just fine... for now. One of my next steps is to update KDE to 3.3.1-x and check it again. Stan
