Something in Milestone 4 causes it to fail, probably an option problem which I am currently trying to track down. I for one would welcome its inclusion. # jackd --version

I have a fully functional jack2 ready for submission it's a drop in replacement for the existing jack. I was originally going to submit it as an update for jack but I've put it in multimedia:libs. There's a "|shared-lib-calls-exit" rpmlint error I must fix before submission to factory.
Thanks.
I just took a quick look. One thing to be fixed is the package name. It should be rather libjack0 instead of libjack2. The shlib package name is defined simply from the so version number.
For devel, keep libjack-devel. Since JACK1 and JACK2 are exclusive, there is no big reason to keep both devel packages parallel installable.
Could you fix these?
Takashi
Jack2 cleanly replaces the jack package with provides and obsoletes because they cannot exist together. Jack2 provides exactly the same functions and binaries as jack plus libjackserver this is why it's also an update candidate for the existing jack, the tarball is even called plain jack. I'm preparing my home project jack2 to update jack if this is the way to go.
I submitted the updated jack-1.9.5 to FACTORY now.

It's not showed up so far, will check again later. Regards Sid.
It;s still waiting sr 37393 created 2010-04-08T17:25:39 but you can get it in the multimedia:libs repo meanwhile, exactly the same build as factory standard..
