Audacity and FFMPEG/LibAV under Arch Linux

[jonathanbrickman0000]

I am running a fully-updated Arch Linux, and have found that its current Audacity requires libavformat.so.52 if it is to use FFMPEG/LibAV libraries. But I have found only libavformat.so.53 available from both repos and AUR. Anyone know what to do?

I didn't understand exactly, but if you had the old version installed and didn't clean the pacman cache you can reinstall it.

So far as I have been able to tell, libavformat.so.52 does not exist from current Arch repos and AUR. .53 is the only version which appears available. Any ideas?

I don't understand. Audacity needs this library? here in my Arch system I never had a problem with Audacity. Audacity was actualized today in the repro, see if it was solved.

it was indeed. FFMPEG is needed for WMA export, and the most recent update fixed it.
