No, because this is not a transition, but two different APIs that (mostly) share same ABI. Which means some packages works fine with either of the JACK libraries but some require the jackd2 one - which then pushes the other out, including the -dev package. > Alternately, if this transition would in fact not be correct, please > explain to me what the correct procedure - even if a manual one - > would be. If you want to develop JACK v1 then avoid installing packages that depend on the JACK v2 extensions to the ABI/API. I believe there is no bug here - but am not sure, so please do not give up just yet :-) Regards, - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
