Package: jackd2
Version: 1.9.8~dfsg.4+20120529git007cdc37-5
Severity: minor

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Since few time i'm was unable to launch jackd with the following message
: « Cannot create shm registry segment (Permission denied) »

I found this is mostly due to /run/shm which wasn't mounted as tmpfs
(btw i don't know were to report this bug).

However it seems jackd is also guilty because it tries to access
/dev/shm instead of /run/shm. According to release notes of /run
migration (
http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/RunDirectory#Packages_using_.2Fdev.2Fshm
) this shall be done with shm_* and sem_*. Could you correct this ?

Thanks
