Hi,

I'm pretty new to Linux and just finished installing Ubuntu Warty
(debian). I'm trying to install Audacity 1.2.1 and got the xxxx.deb
package from the Ubuntu site. When I tried to install the application I
got an error that these files were not found:

libid3tag0
libsndfile1
libwxgtk2.4

and the package didn't finish installing. Where do I find these files
and how do I install them?

BTW, my Linux system does not have internet access and that's why I'm
installing the application manually.

Thanks

Paul

Hi there,

You can search the package archives of Ubuntu here:

<URL:http://higgs.djpig.de/ubuntu/www/>

or use 'apt-cache show audacity' to find the dependencies.

Searchingfor Audacity results in the following page:
<URL:http://higgs.djpig.de/ubuntu//warty/sound/audacity>
or from apt:
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4), libgcc1 (>= 1:3.3.4-1), libid3tag0
(>= 0.15.0b), libmad0 (>= 0.15.1b), libogg0 (>= 1.1.0), libsndfile1
(>= 1.0.2-1), libstdc++5 (>= 1:3.3.4-1), libvorbis0a (>= 1.0.1),
libvorbisenc2 (>= 1.0.1), libvorbisfile3 (>= 1.0.1), libwxgtk2.4 (>=
2.4.2.4ubuntu1)

So you need to download and install the packages that are listed as
dependencies. Links to the packages and are in the mentioned URL.
