Sunny, How did you install Audacity? If you used YaST2, it would have worked out any dependencies or missing files for you at that time. Probably still would, if you were to open the Add/Remove Software module up. If in fact, you built it or did a rpm --force, therein lies your problem. Audacity seems to open here without problems, but I've got most of GTK/gnome stuff installed too.
See what YaST2 indicates, then go from there searching for you problem.

Hi Lee, thanks for the post. 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 -- Get Firefox http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=10745&t=85
