Audacity no nyquist -no silence finder-Ubuntu 18

Post by vector »

HI all,
Im having some issues with audacity.
Ive purged and reinstalled 2.4.1 from the website.
the nyquist plugins are missing.
so I re downloaded and copied a few .ny files
eg. /home/mark/.audacity-data/Plug-Ins/Firex.ny
but it still wont find them.
I vaguely recall there was a nyquist folder in the /Analyze/folder. Cant find that anywhere now.
the Manage plugins menu has no nyquist files to enable or disable for that matter.

Specifically I was wanting to use the silence finder which im sure Ive used b4. but that was prior to the many updates etc.
So not sure when why it disappeared.


Ubuntu Studio 18.04

It's a bug in packaging. Go here, follow instructions - https://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopi ... 24#p395483

cheers. After a bit of digging I found out the ppa is broke.
I removed audacity, unticked the ppa and installed audacity via Ubuntu software centre.
2.3.3 is now working fine and will suit my current needs until panda jim fixes his ppa.
