My download recommendation for 'best' Audacity pet package
AUDACITY DOWNLOAD
Now the info to make the pet package.
Would you like to use the most up-to-date version of audacity?
You can easily make it yourself in a couple of minutes once you
have the right setup and knowledge. First of all, this is only
for users of Lucid Puppy. Secondly you must install alien2puppy
available from
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 58&t=57548
You are not compiling anything so there is no need for
the 'devx' SFS file
To build the latest audacity package, here is the method I now use:
I go to https://launchpad.net/~audacity-team/+a ... /+packages
to get latest debian package
audacity_1.3.12+svn201007201932+r6249-0lucid1_i386.deb
put in a folder with
libjack0_0.118+svn3796-1ubuntu2_i386.deb
libflac++6_1.2.1-2build2_i386.deb
libsoundtouch1c2_1.3.1-2_i386.deb
libvamp-hostsdk3_2.1-1_i386.deb
libtwolame0_0.3.12-1_i386.deb
libwxgtk2.8-0_2.8.10.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
libwxbase2.8-0_2.8.10.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
which I got from
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/audacity
The folder can be named anything appropriate.
cd inside your folder full of debian packages.
In terminal type
A folder named audacity-july20-1.3.13 is now created.
Continue to read the terminal instructions and follow them.
You will be given a chance to pause so you can make changes to the
desktop file (named 'audacity.desktop'). Do that by pressing ENTER.
Change the desktop file to
AUDACITY DOWNLOAD
Now the info to make the pet package.
