I used urpmi, which also failed, but... urpmf then showed me that the
only versions of libwx_gtk Mandrake has are 2.4.*, which is why it
failed.

dunno if hackaudacity is different, but I just loaded audacity and had
the same problem. So I closed it and tried again with soundwrapper

If a program is really obstinate and you use artsd, try artsdsp -m
