I'm currently building/uploading it to experimental.

Btw, on a short code inspection I found out that in src/FFmpeg.cpp there
is code that looks for ffmpeg libraries and dynamically loads them if
they are available. That code seems rather inconsistent, it talks about
libavformat, but loads and checks for symbols in libavcodec, maybe there
is just some misunderstanding.

Has someone checked if audacity works with libavcodec52? Or is that
restricted to libavcodec51?

In any case, if that indeed works, I think we can add a Suggests to
debian/control
