Audacity and FFmpeg

Hi,

Since my most recent upgrade Audacity is no longer able to load the upgraded libavformat library. It fails with the following error:

FFmpeg was configured in Preferences and successfully loaded before,                         
but this time Audacity failed to load it at startup.                         

You may want to go back to Preferences > Libraries and re-configure it.

I've updated my configuration file so that FFmpegLibPath=/usr/lib/libavformat.so.54, which makes no difference. Presumably Audacity needs recompiling against the new FFmpeg package?

Thanks.
