As the maintainer of the debian packaging of lame (upstream), I would suggest that you grab the latest released sources from sourceforge (see sf.net/projects/lame). Then, try to compile the version 3.87beta (don't be scared about the beta in the name of the package---it's actually quite stable and works well) to generate three debian packages for your system, one of them being libmp3lame0, which audacity needs (yes, I do some recordings with Audacity also). Please install debhelper, build-essential and fakeroot to compile lame "the Debian way", then enter the main directory and, finally, issue something like: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot In a few moments you should get your shiny new packages compiled. Hope this helps, Rogério Brito. -- Rogério Brito : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Homepage of the algorithms package : http://algorithms.berlios.de Homepage on freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/algorithms/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
