Debian has 1.9.12~dfsg-2 in unstable and testing and 1.9.10+20150825git1ed50c92~dfsg-5 in stable. The kxstudio-guys set an epoch 2 to their package version, which makes their version always higher and preferred. But this version depends on libreadline6 while in Debian since stretch there's only libreadline7. So the easiest way to fix this would be to downgrade to jackd2 from stable if you are running stable. And you should consider to replace all packages from kxstudio with the ones from Debian. In most cases it's not the best idea to mix up distributions.

The issue is that the version of jackd2 you've installed is not compatible with stable. Cheers > > To my utter shock, libreadline6 had packages for Sid, Jessie, and Wheezy--but > not for Stretch.

Bug#906296: jackd2: Jackd mysteriously uninstalled, libreadline6 disappears from repo?
Package: jackd2 Version: 2:1.9.12-1~kxstudio1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Today, I tried to use my audio workstation (qtractor) to do some editing, only to discover that Cadence had been uninstalled. I went to reinstall and run it, and found that jackdbus was missing, and a cursory search revealed that jackd2 was no longer on my system. Now, I had previously installed jackd2 as part of setting up my DAW, so this seemed fishy. So I went to install it again, and found that it was missing libreadline6. To my utter shock, libreadline6 had packages for Sid, Jessie, and Wheezy--but not for Stretch. I ended up installing an older version manually by downloading the .deb from the website, which will no doubt make future updates very fun. My question is: how did this happen? Trying to install jackd2 on a fresh Stretch install would have revealed this issue immediately. In fact, the entire reason I'm using Debian right now is because this sort of thing is actively prevented by Debian's package maintenance process. I've been resisting the urge to channel the spirit of Torvalds into this email :P Now, I *have* been installing some packages from external repos, and I've been doing some fiddling with gdebi and such. But given that the required dependency is literally missing from stretch's repos, something tells me that's the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-7-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages jackd2 depends on: ii coreutils 8.26-3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.61 ii libasound2 1.1.3-5 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii libdbus-1-31.10.26-0+deb9u1 ii libexpat1 2.2.0-2+deb9u1 ii libgcc11:6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii libjack-jackd2-0 2:1.9.12-1~kxstudio1 ii libreadline6 6.2+dfsg-0.1 ii libsamplerate0 0.1.8-8+b2 ii libsndfile11.0.27-3 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii multiarch-support 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii python 2.7.13-2 ii python-dbus1.2.4-1+b1 Versions of packages jackd2 recommends: ii jackd2-firewire 2:1.9.12-1~kxstudio1 ii libpam-modules 1.1.8-3.6 Versions of packages jackd2 suggests: pn jack-tools pn meterbridge -- Configuration Files: /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf changed: @audio - rtprio 95 @audio - memlockunlimited -- debconf information: * jackd/tweak_rt_limits: true
