Description

Hello, this is a simple question: Currenly, I am using Audacious in Ubuntu 11.10, installed from the WebUpd8 ppa repository. If I compile from the source available in the Audacious page (doing the standard ./configure, make ...), is the location of Audacious folders the same compared with the repository? Or will I end with two different copies of the same program? Thanks for your attention.

  • Description updated (diff)

You should completely uninstall the WebUpd8 version before compiling from source. When you do compile from source, you should use ./configure --prefix=/usr to make sure Audacious is installed in the right folders. (This is common practice for most programs in Debian/Ubuntu, nothing unique about Audacious.)
