you can have any librubberband released version (>= 1.0.x). afaics,
they're all abi-compatible
your problem seems to be that librubberband.so is/was installed under
/usr/local/lib and this directory may not be in the shared library search
path.
check whether it is listed in /etc/ld.so.config . if not, edit and add the
line (/usr/local/lib) then run `ldconfig` so that change take effect
immediately. if all that is correct, qtractor should run fine as
librubberband.so is now searched and found by the dynamic linker.
i strongly recommend you to always try from the latest and greatest
source, that being the cvs version (currently qtractor-0.4.1.1325) or at
least the latest released version (0.4.1)
the so called "downgrade" version (0.0.3.662) is waaaay too old to make
any justice to where and what qtractor really is today (it's a 2year gap,
ya know?) although you'll don't find big differences in the gui...
