Thanks for the feedback, I will continue to update post as compatible versions come in ; -)

I think I can now say that Audacity 2 is working just fine in LuPuPlusLibre. I was able to record a side of vinyl, declick it, and run a noise reduction on it, and save it as an mp3.

I am also happy to report that the declicker module has vastly improved, and is now actually useful, although it is still sort of a pain to calibrate.

I had forgotten how big uncompressed audio files get, and that I was running a frugal installation with only a 1-gig savefile, so I had to do it all over. One or two levels of undo data eats up a gig in a big hurry. Audacity didn't crash, it was just unable to save any more.

I downloaded and unzipped the help manual, and put it in the place they recommend, but it doesn't work from the program menu. It's HTML, so you can simply open it in your browser, but it would be nice to have it immediately available. I tried changing its permissions, and I also tried it in a "full" installation as well as a frugal one, all to no avail. Playdayz has published a fix for GIMP help, I wonder if that would work? Maybe try that tomorrow.

All in all, certainly the best Audacity version ever, and many thanks to all for that!
