After recent updates, the audio editor Audacity now refuses to start.
Starting in Konsole gives the following.....

While I've web searched and tried a few solutions to deal with the
"critical" warnings, none have worked. Any clues on this? A full
reboot did not solve the problem. Neither did deleting the config files
the user creates.

The kicad and wxgtk packages were mistakenly released before the rest of the
other packages that use the updated wxgtk package were ready.
Details in https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29848

The updated audacity package will be available as shortly.

Thanks for that David, now the errors make more sense.

Thanks David. I read the long thread of the build error problems. I can
confirm there were some updates over night, and Audacity now works. I
can't talk about any of the other packages that have problems, as I
don't have any of them installed / used to test them.

Thanks for yours and the build/testers help.

I found mine did not load this morning either but the updates were in.

I notice that Audacity is the only launch icon that does not show a
loading action ie the bouncing icon.

It's only an aesthetic but these quirks are a tiny bit irritating
I have rebooted - been caught with that one before :-)

Tested as soon as I saw the thread and Audacity failed to run.
Ran from the command land after I did the updates.

We were almost in step, Bits but I launched from the GUI to no response.
I didn't get to the CL and my update icon was already activated

Strange. It's working on my system. I'll look into it more tomorrow, but will
likely need help to figure out what's different between my system and yours.

Mine does work, so after reading this I started again in Konsole to see
what's going on. I got the following warnings, but nothing that stopped
Audacity working as before.

Then a whole load of ALSA settings not relevant to this problem which I
edited out.

Which desktop environment are you running? I'm running plasma using the Breeze
Application Style, and Breeze Dark for the Plasma style / Global Theme.

When I run it under plasma, the last line in the terminal is ...
Expression 'stream->playback.pcm' failed in '/home/iurt/rpmbuild/BUILD/audacity-minsrc-2.4.2/lib-src/portaudio-v19/src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 4628

I don't get the "*** BUG ***" line or the following two.

I logged out of plasma and into xfce4. Same result, with it working on my install.

Mind trying a new user?

Tainted 32bit Release (distrib41)
Tainted 32bit Updates (distrib42)

Audacity is working in that install too.

Do you have the 32 bit repos enabled?

Nope
# urpmq --list-media active
Core_Release
Core_Updates
Nonfree_Release
Nonfree_Updates
Tainted_Release
Tainted_Update

Names are different because I have a setup script where I set the media name.
