Thank you for the information! But the bug can already be reproduced 
quite reliably by the example project that Klaumi submitted. And I 
believe that the problem is fixed by the patch 
"wxwidgets-clipboard-reentry-workaround.patch" that I posted earlier. 
Now it is important that someone actually tests the patch and the 
package maintainers include it in a new version of the package (if they 
find it suitable).

If you encounter this problem again in a future audacity package version 
including the patch (most likely version 2.0.6-2), we would very much 
appreciate it, if you reported it again. Thank you!

Cheers,
Martin
