I tried before with audacity 1.3.5. I get:

import/ImportFLAC.cpp: In member function 'virtual void
MyFLACFile::metadata_callback(const FLAC__StreamMetada
ta*)':
import/ImportFLAC.cpp:185: error: 'FLAC__METADATA_TYPE_PICTURE' was not
declared in this scope
make[1]: *** [import/ImportFLAC.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/dar/build/audacity-src-1.3.5-beta/src'
make: *** [audacity] Error 2

I just took a peek at how Fedora 9 does it. According to audacity- nonfree.spec, it's using compat-wxGTK26-devel.

Are there any arguments against using this solution? At least, until someone manages to build Audacity hassle-free against wxGTK2.8?

Why not fix Yum so that it can handle dependency resolution problems. With Apt someone who does not have audacity installed would simply update their system. Someone with audacity installed can either decide to stay there until audacity is fixed, or can decide to have apt uninstall audacity and update everything else.

That would make a lot of things easier and avoid having people jump up and down and scream when there is a dependency problem, or when they have a problem mixing repositories.

With apt the user is in control and can define the policy that matches with what they want.

Until yum has magically transformed into apt it would be nice towards RPMForge users to provide a repository that doesn't cause these errors on their end when they haven't done anything wrong (like mixing incompatible repositories).
