I might try that next. That would be surprising.

Perhaps that problem would magically vanish when using system=E2=80=99s PortAudio because headers would be in $CPATH. > From 82e8a7f2a708201ea7fd538580485546849347a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 > From: =3D?UTF-8?q?Taylan=3D20Ulrich=3D20Bay=3DC4=3DB1rl=3DC4=3DB1/Kammer?= =3D > > Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 21:52:21 +0100 > Subject: [PATCH 9/9] gnu: Add audacity. > > * gnu/packages/audio.scm (audacity): New variable. > * gnu/packages/patches/audacity-fix-ffmpeg-binding.patch: New file. > * gnu-system.am (dist_patch_DATA): Add it. The rest of the patch looks good to me; just the PortAudio issue needs to be resolved. Perhaps Ricardo has an opinion? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
