It looks like you have updated FGDATA without updating Flightgear. Your pull on FGDATA has given you 2016.1.0 but your Flightgear is still at 3.7. You need to download and compile Flightgear 2016.1.0 and associated dependencies, e.g. Simgear.

EDIT: I think you also need to investigate why your FGDATA is under an Audacity directory. It would be easy to delete it accidentally, thinking that you were just deleting Audacity.

I'm going to assume you are using a Windows nightly build?

The deal is that the update to 2016.1.0 went in yesterday evening (Jan 5 19:44 UTC). The last Windows nightly looks like it built at Jan 5 01:14 UTC, so it will still be 3.7 but, as I write, it is currently building. If that build is successful, that should give you Flightgear 2016.1.0, including Simgear and dependencies.

http://build.flightgear.org:8080/job/Windows-nightly/

It's possible that this build will fail, in which case you are stuck until someone fixes it.

Your best solution might be to go back to a 3.7 version of FGDATA, e.g. commit b640f6 and wait a few days until things stabilise with 2016.1.0.

EDIT: For anyone using nightly builds, don't pull FGDATA until you are able to get a nightly build from Jan 6 onwards.

Do you know how to use git to revert FGDATA to an old commit?

EDIT: No need, the Windows nightly looks like it built OK:
