Bug#988632: audacity: The main drawing area (sound wave) do not refresh

[pominglee <pominglee@gmail.com>]

Package: audacity
Version: 2.4.2~dfsg0-4
Severity: grave
Tags: newcomer
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello, I've just install audacity 2.4.2~dfsg0-4. However, it is not useful
since the drawing area (the sound wave display) does not refresh. To be
more specific, when a sound file is opened, the drawing area is a mess.
I try to remove and re-install audacity without success.

Finally, I download the source code of the newest version of audacity (3.0.2)
, compile it and install it to the /usr/local/ directory. And it works 
very well.

Please help to fix this bug, thank you!!

Best Regards

pmlee
