To install, first simulate installing from a specific repo:-

# apt-get -st $repository install $package [$package...]
if it looks good re-do without the "s" (simulate) (it'll show what will
be installed/removed/upgraded, and where it's pulled from)

e.g.  su -c "apt-get -st deb-multimedia install audacity"

To check origin of installed package:-
$ dpkg -l $package

NOTES: there are several other ways of determining where a specific
package was obtained from.
I don't use the deb-multimedia repository if I can avoid it (it can
break things) so you should check it's name for the repository.

Kind regards
