      * Clear $HOME/.audacity*.
      * Run "audacity something.mp3".
      * Amplify the entire song -10 dB in preparation for clip
        reconstruction.
      * Run "Clip Fix" effect plugin.

The progress bar gets half way, then this is printed on the console:

        ERROR: Could not find sinewave.raw in rawwaves. Something is wrong with the installation or configuration.

        ; loading "/usr/share/audacity/nyquist/init.lsp"

        Set *default-sf-dir* to "/home/john/Music/Downloads" in fileio.lsp

        Default sound file is john-temp.wav.

        error: too few arguments

The audio seems to be unchanged.

      * Run Clip Fix again.

Audacity crashes printing:

        1> Segmentation fault

I believe this is the same bug as Ubuntu's #454859; if so, it should be
fixed in upstream 1.3.11, which I plan to test shortly.
