I just got audacity installed on my fresh 12.1 a couple days ago using all
slack pkgs. I have libFLAC 6 and 8, so it must have been in one of these
packages.

audacity-1.3.5-i486-1sl.tgz
fftw-3.1.2-i486-1kjz.tgz
jack-audio-connection-kit-0.109.2-i486-2sl.tgz
jackmix-0.0.3-i486-4fv.tgz
jackmix-0.3.1-i486-2fv.tgz
libmspack-0.0.20060920alpha-i486-1as.tgz
libsamplerate-0.1.3-i486-1sl.tgz
libsndfile-1.0.17-i486-1sl.tgz
portaudio-20080508-i486-2as.tgz
soundtouch-1.3.1-i486-2as.tgz
twolame-0.3.12-i486-1as.tgz
wxwidgets-2.8.7.unicode-i486-1sl.tgz

It seems to be working ok, with the exception of a couple effects. Natch,
they're the ones I want, change pitch and change tempo. Supposedly, I can
get them to work by re-compiling audacity with the '--with-soundtouch' opt.
I will if I have to. but would sure like to get the soundtouch libs working
without having to re-compile.

Anyone?

Thanks for replying. I either verified or installed all the packages you
list but it didn't solve the problem. I then put soft links from the most
recent lib files that caused error messages to the ones required. That
allows audacity to load. I haven't tried to do anything with it yet.
Cheers, jwc

Oops! I just discovered that I have another (older) version of audacity
in the /usr/local/ tree. Once I disposed of it everything worked ok.
My bad, jwc
