because xine is in main and must not depend on the libjack-dev. this means that the jack plugin cannot be build from source. > Why couldn't there be a package called something like 'libxine1-jack' in > universe which includes that plugin file, and depends on 'libxine1' (and > is compiled from the same version)? Because every change to the xine-lib source would need to be replicated to the source copy in universe. We avoid source copies in ubuntu. What you could try is to fork xine to only build the jack plugin and nothing else.... -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- Jack output for xine apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152487 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
