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

I tried every combination of repo and AUR versions of Audacity, FFMPEG,

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?
