But it is the version purported to have Long Term Support so us (more or less) "ordinary" users can count on things working for a few years. > - it's /possible/ you're > running into a problem due to an incompatible version of Python: maybe > you're running a newer version of transcribe that expects a newer > python than what you have installed? If it is somehow related to versions my guess is that it is an older version of transcribe that got bit by some upgrade in python. Alas, I have so far been unable to locate the source of the program on the Internet today. My Googling has turned up all kinds of things that aren't this program called transcribe. There's a music transcription program called transcribe that dominates my search returns, now. I think I used to have the python source code from back when I first tried to use it and before I found the deb package. I'll have to try some other search strings. > I don't know how backports / LTS works for Ubuntu -- you may be just > fine in that respect, but that came to mind. Don't know what backports are all about. Thanks for the ideas. They got me thinking about other search strings. -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
