If so, where should I go from here?
As I cannot reproduce the bug, and I fear it is not directly an audacity problem, and I also think the problem does not happen in unstable, this bug actually has as effect that audacity has been removed from testing. It may be a good idea to mark the bug as unreproducable and lower its priority. This would at least allow audacity to enter testing again. What do you think?
