This was compiled in Puppy 4 and might not work in other Puppies.

Wxgtk's web page:

Of course the dev pets are only if you want to use these programs to compile something. They are not necessary to make Audacity run.

If the direct links below don't work you can access my yahoo briefcase that contain the files here:

The package has been updated to the most recent cvs version and compiled a little different this time. Instead of compiling in the dependencies using the local tree I compiled with system libraries. This way I can use the libraries for other programs.

Bill,

I haven't used audacity, but I'm guessing you might be missing a library or two. If you open a console, (Menu->Utility->Rxvt), and enter audacity, are any errors generated?

Apparently I don't know Jack :o)

Hi muggins,Thanks for the help.In console and entering "Audacity" only,I get this error:

Audacity:error while loading shared libraries:lib.jack.so.0:cannot open shared object file:no such file or directory

thanks,bill

Hi Bill,

no problems with pm'ing me, just that it's better to post to the original thread in case others have the same problem.

Maybe it's just too late at night and I'm not thinking straight, but I can't figure why libsamplerate-0.1.2.pet won't install and I keep getting this:

Code: Select all

audacity: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found (required by /usr/lib/libvamp-hostsdk.so)
audacity: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2_core-2.8.so.0)
audacity: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found (required by /usr/lib/libwx_base-2.8.so.0)
Anybody know?

These were all compiled in Puppy 4. Are you using Puppy 4? If you're using a previous version the libs may not work.

Hi battleshooter,I am running plinej's setup for Audacity for quite a while now in Puppy 4 Dingo so I am living proof what a noob can do when handed the proper tools.Just hang in there and it will come.cheers,bill

Oh yeah stink, I forgot about that. I'm using Puppy 3. Is there an alternative package I can use instead of libsamplerate-0.1.2.pet? Or a way I can update libstdc++.so.6 so I can get 'GLIBCXX_3.4.9'?

Oh, and thanks for the encouragement Bill! I'm sure I will get there in the end, but it'll take time :)

I use a newer libstsdc++.so in Muppy0084alpha, from Gnomeslack.org.

Please backup first these files in /usr/lib/, as far as they exist:

libgcc_s.so
libgcc_s.so.1
libstdc++.so
libstdc++.so.6
libstdc++.so.6.0.9

Then extract the attached archive in /root, and move the files from /root/libstdc++.so.6.0.9 to /usr/lib/

I cannot tell you though, if it works.
If not, then restore your backuped files.
It might be better maybe, if someone could post an archive with these files from Puppy 4.

Mark

Success!

Thanks MU!

Audacity is up and running! I can't record yet, but I think that will just take a bit of tweaking. Thanks Plinej and Bill also for your consideration!
Much appreciated!
