Thanks now Audacity is up and running. I had been trying the whole day 
but now it works. Hardest part was figuring out how rpmi works and how 
to add dependencies with the suffix -devel. The only one I couldn't find 
was wxGTK-2.5-devel but I installed 2.4 and then rpm --rebuilt --nodeps 
. But maybe that's the reason the GUI doesn't show up in some buttons.

Felix.
