Problem to launch audacity with snap installation

Hello,

I would like to use the “OpenVINO™ AI Plugins” for Audacity plugin. I am using ‘Debian sid’.

I have read that this can only be done with the snap version of Audacity. I read this here → ‘https://github.com/intel/openvino-plugins-ai-audacity/blob/main/doc/build_doc/linux/README.md’

So I installed Audacity with snap.

$ sudo snap install audacity

$ audacity 3.7.5 from Snapcrafters✪ installed

$ snap list

Name Version Rev Tracking Publisher Notes

audacity 3.7.5 1212 latest/stable snapcrafters✪ -

Everything went well for me, but when I type

$ audacity

bash responds → bash: audacity: command not found

I’m not used to using snap. Have I forgotten something?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello, I’ll answer my own question. The “/snap/bin” directory is not in my PATH. If I go to “/snap/bin” and type the command ./audacity, Audacity launches correctly.

All the best

for anyone else bumping into issues with audacity via a snap:

i tried to install audacity via the same snap STABLE version 3.7.5 and got this error:

command-chain for /snap/audacity/1213/gnome-platform/command-chain/desktop-launch not found

but using the latest/edge 3.7.6 snap; works!
