I am trying to install the audacity sound recorder on a Fedora 4 system.
So far I have tried tar source files , pre-compiled RPM and source-RPM.
The problem seems to be either with the latest GCC 4.0 compiler or the
version of the wxWindows library .
I have installed both wxWindows 2.4 and wxWindows 2.6.1 version.
The pre-compiled audacity RPM seems to need the library
wx-GTK2-2.6.so.
When I installed audacity in the past it used the 2.4 version of wxWindows.
I was able to build and install wxWindows version 2.6.1
This resolved the missing library error.
If I install the precompiled RPM version of audacity , the program installs ,
but
it generates run-time assertion errors associated with the gtk library .
The following symbols are apparently undefined:
gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget
gtk_misc_set_alignment
gtk_container_add.
If I try to build audacity from the source RPM I get compiler errors from GCC
4.0 relating to an undefined function DrawBackground in the file
metertoolbar.cpp.
I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or if this is a Fedora 4 / GCC 4.0
issue. The new C++ compiler seems to be much more fussy than the older
GCC3.2 version.
