Hi,
I am trying to launch audacity on a stretch amd64 system, and
the following happens:

1.  I get a popup with text "Audacity could not find a place to store
      temporary files.  Please enter an appropriate directory in the
      preferences dialog."

Click ok, then:

2.  An error popup appears stating: "AudioIO.cpp(2363): assert "false"
      failed in getPlayDevIndex()."  A backtrace is available but
      doesn't reveal anything obvious to me.

Click continue, then:

3.  An error popup appears stating: "AudioIO.cpp(2416): assert "false"
      failed in getRecordDevIndex()."

Continue then segfaults.

The googleman doesn't provide any clues.  Ideas?

You made me go and look. Audacity launches just fine running stretch
amd64. Are you joined to the audio group? Ric

This is an agressively cut down system w/o gnome, kde, etc.  Just wdm
and fvwm.  I have pulse installed and it is running.  So I am missing
an early dependency somewhere.  I wonder what that could be?

As a start, have you run
#aptitude show audacity
to see what the initial situation is?

No problems, apparently:
