The flatpak package won’t replace the classic deb package. When it opens, run following commands one by one.ġ.) For Ubuntu 18.04, add the PPA for updated version of Flatpak framework: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexlarsson/flatpak & sudo apt updateĢ.) Install flatpak via command: sudo apt install flatpakģ.) Add flathub repository that hosts the software packages: flatpak remote-add -if-not-exists flathub Ĥ.) Finally install Audacity flatpak package: flatpak install flathub Install Audacity 3.0.0 via Flatpak:įirstly open terminal from system app launcher. Though I’m not a fan of the containerized Flatpak package, it’s so far the only ‘correctly’ build binary package since the Snap is still under testing.

The distribution’s build and Ubuntu PPAs are mostly “ incorrectly built packages” as they are built against the wrong wxWidgets (3.0.x), however Audacity 3.0.0 requires wxWidgets 3.1.3.

As well, you can install the Snap package from Ubuntu Software. Ubuntu PPA has updated via the 3.0.x built against wxWidgets 3.1.3.
