Just curious: who's still using libjackasyn? I wasn't able to find a
single application that depends on it...

The same functionality is available via padsp and
pulseaudio-module-jack. It's also available via alsa-oss and
libasound2-plugins (ALSA-to-jack bridge).


Looks like the whole purpose of the package is somewhat obsolete. We
might eventually want to remove it from the archive.


Just my €0.02
