Yes, it's a drop-in replacement, and users can decide whether they want to use jack1 or jack2. They also keep the command line syntax in sync. >> For keeping our packages simple and clean, I suggest to recompile. > True.

We already had a binNMU for jackeq, but the poster is using the old one (probably linked against libjackd-0.100). (the lenny version). The jackd version in lenny is 0.109, so we must be talking about some mixed system configuration, that is, a jackd version from unstable/testing and jackeq from lenny. (Daniel, please clarify) With jackeq from unstable/testing, there's no bug. With jackd from lenny, there's no bug. You also had the compat symlinks for a while: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-multimedia/jack-audio-connection-kit.git;a=commitdiff;h=a90b2dada36e66e3faf2dcfc769a8ff0967f01a0 Though it's not that hard to re-enable these two lines, I think we made everything right. I don't think we support mixed lenny/testing environments, we focus on squeeze. And for squeeze, we're done. ;) (I see this all the time: Ubuntu-8.04 too old for FFADO, too old for modern ardour, the new jackd requires celt-0.7.0 which got added to unstable last week... the whole pro-audio stuff is bleeding edge. It just doesn't make sense to run lenny with some parts from unstable.) > thing is that now a mixed upgrade of jack and friends can leave > applications in a broken state. If you think we should support this scenario, I'd second your proposal of re-adding the 0.100 compat link.
