** Description changed:

  The version of audacity in trusty seems to be missing LADSPA support:
  under Effects, I see only 29 plugins listed. Downgrading to version
  2.0.3-1 (from raring/saucy), I see the expected list of 277 plugins.
- Comparing the configure for raring/saucy and trusty the only difference
- I can see is the following, but
  
- raring/saucy: --with-ffmpeg=system
+ [Impact]
+ LADSPA plug-ins provided by Debian packages (which install plug-ins into /usr/lib/ladspa/) are not found by Audacity by default.
  
- trusty: --without-ffmpeg
+ [Testcase]
+ 1) Install ladspa-sdk (which adds some files to /usr/lib/ladspa/)
+ 2) Launch Audacity
+ 3) Click on Effects
  
- I'd be surprised if that is relevant and added to which, the build log
- shows that ladspa is enabled (?!?)
+ You should see "Plug-ins 16 to 20" (or more). More than the 12 default
+ plug-ins should be displayed.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Due to this change LADSPA plug-ins could be loaded which trigger some bugs. So not only people setting LADSPA_PATH to /usr/lib/ladspa/ would see these.
