The problem is fixed in debian experimental. That won't help
most users
until lenny gets rolling. Since etch was released on Sunday,
a
transition will likely be planned within the next, hmm ... I
don't know,
say maybe 1/2 year or so(?) to get all of the jack dependent
apps
rebuilt with a sanely named .so dependency.
My hope is that we (debian developers and
developer-wannabes, like me)
can also provide backports for etch that make this less of a
PITA for
users. I'm going to debconf and hope to discuss issues like
this with
others there who care about multimedia in debian. Any debian
users or
devs here who care about such things might like to join the
debian-multimedia list: http://lis
ts.debian.org/debian-multimedia/
So, no real help for the current OPs problem, but some hope
for future
improvements ...
