We should probably consider moving to Tenacity, as upstream Audacity has
recently taken a few decisions that are questionable.

See [1] for more details on this and the current Tenacity source code.
Ideally, we'd add a new tenacity port and possibly mark audacity as
replaced_by tenacity, or at least add a note about this.
