Then we would have just one.
since i know that "Depends" are only "Recommends", all is good: we should have *all* recording packages in "recording". > >> - qtractor >> - ecasound >> (though for whatever reasons audicity is missing) >> and a few tools which i fail to see why they are in "recording" at all >> (only listing a few select Depends-packages): >> - jackd > > This is a bit odd (it should probably be indirectly pulled in by the > app that wants it). yes. > >> - qjackctl > > But this is not. If we know ardour needs jack (this is no longer the > case apparently?), installing qjackctl makes a lot of sense. dunno. esp. in the case of ardour, it can handle jack connections quite well all alone (no need to manually fuddle around with qjackctl). but anyhow, my point is: if qjackctl is a good companion for ardour, shouldn't it be in the Recommends section of ardour? > >> - ffmulticonverter > > Quite possibly you need to transcode your resulting audio for distribution? > but that's not a "recording" task, it's "postproduction" (which comes after the *mixing* task). fmsdar IOhannes
