Hello,

i have an old version of Audacity and wanted to upgrade to the current one available at the
SlackBuidls Reposotory

I try to install it via sbopkg and leave the original SlackBuild file untouched. Nevertheless i get the following error during building:

Code:

configure: Checking that the chosen version of wxWidgets is 3.0.x
configure: error: Unable to locate a suitable configuration of wxWidgets v3.0.x or higher.
The currently available configurations are listed below.  If necessary, either
install the package for your distribution or download the latest version of
wxWidgets
from http://wxwidgets.org.

    Default config is gtk2-unicode-release-2.8

  Default config will be used for output

Could someone please let me know what i need to do?

reading the output I can guess you are missing (or you have to rebuild/reinstall) wxGTK3, that's listed as a dependency on audacity SBo's page: I don't know if this case applies, but please have a look at the final paragraph of wxGTK3's README.

I had skipped reading the last part of README, which was actually the solution.
