Both systems say the following:-

    chris$ ldd /usr/bin/audacity | grep -i soundtouch
        libSoundTouch.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSoundTouch.so.1 (0x00007f70f87fd000)

So why is one system failing with:-

    audacity: error while loading shared libraries: libSoundTouch.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

since accoring to ldd it shouldn't be trying to load libSoundTouch.so.0.

Oh well, the workaround in the previous E-Mail works.
