Description
Is this a new report?
Yes
System Info
Void 6.1.186_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrrrmmnF
Package(s) Affected
nothing (the command line returned an empty response)
Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?
There is a similar error in the search results, but not the exact same one:
https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/completely-stuck-and-confused-solved/60882/2
Expected behaviour
[void@localhost ~]$ audacity
program starts
Actual behaviour
[void@localhost ~]$ audacity
audacity: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/../lib64/audacity/lib-wx-wrappers.so: undefined symbol: _ZN12wxWindowBase14RegisterHotKeyEiii
[void@localhost ~]$
Steps to reproduce
sudo xbps-install -S audacity- use this program any time and do
sudo xbps-install -Syu audacityaudacity: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/../lib64/audacity/lib-wx-wrappers.so: undefined symbol: _ZN12wxWindowBase14RegisterHotKeyEiii
I can't say for sure what caused this. I sometimes shut down the computer abruptly without closing the program first... I hadn't installed any plugins. It's possible this happened after a system package update (sudo xbps-install -Syu).
Uninstalling and reinstalling the program doesn't help (I install it natively using the command sudo xbps-install -S audacity).
I apologize if this bug report isn't as thorough as it should be. I’m a beginner, and this is my first report.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with audacity after installing or updating the package with xbps-install, then inspect the reported lib-wx-wrappers.so symbol lookup error and the installed package state. Done means Audacity starts successfully after the relevant package or dependency issue is resolved, without the undefined-symbol error.
