Re: Building Audacity 2.1.2 on Debian unstable

I'm also glad, thank you for the assistance. 
I understand the need to regenerate the main configure file, when working with a non-release revision, but I'm wondering why the libraries don't compile correctly without regenerating their configure files. Also, building in a `build/` directory fails with the following error:
so there definitely seems to be something peculiar about my setup. But at least I now have a working build script (attached). Prior to 2.1.2, I somehow compiled Audacity without taking notes and after the update it just fell apart.
P.S.: I just noticed that there is a dedicated subforum for compiling, which contains up to date compilation instructions. I am sorry about the misplacement of the thread; I will check it out, if I encounter building issues in the future.
