Having anticipated that, I worked out an extensive list of the issues currently holding up jack-audio-connection-kit and sent it to -release. :-) I figured, worry about that first, *then* look at the KDE packages with remaining problems. The good news is that gst-plugins is the only package in the jack dependency web with a known RC bug at the moment. (Spiralsynthmodular was fixed almost as soon as I reported the problem.) >I'm inclined to remove some packages from testing to speed the way, but >one of the affected packages is gst-plugins and that's a dependency of >meta-gnome2, so that can't be so easily swept aside ... Heh -- I guess it's unfortunate that gst-plugins is the one with the known RC bug.... The other bad news is the nasty state of the buildds, about which I have made a big, loud ruckus. Maybe things will be better when I get back from vacation in a week -- I can dream, can't I? :-)
