Hello,

I'm running Linux Mint 17, which is based off Ubuntu. My goal is to set up 
Linuxsampler as a piano sequencer for my MIDI Casio keyboard.

I've followed the instructions on pulling and compiling the LS sources from 
subversion, built Debian packages from them and installed them, and everything 
seems to be in order. I've also installed and, to my knowledge, correctly 
configured qjackctl.

Unfortunately, when adding a new device from Qsampler I could only choose ALSA 
drivers, not JACK ones. There was no JACK drivers option in the drop-down list 
in the Devices dialog. Browsing the bulleting boards (which, by the way, have 
registration disabled so I couldn't post there as I don't have a forum account) 
I found out LS wasn't compiled with Jack support, because I didn't have the 
jack package installed at the time of compilation.

So I went back and recompiled LS but it seems it didn't do as expected (snip 
from config.log):

configure:17712: checking for JACK
configure:17719: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "jack"
Package jack was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `jack.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'jack' found
configure:17722: $? = 1
configure:17736: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "jack"
Package jack was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `jack.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'jack' found
configure:17739: $? = 1
configure:17753: result: no
No package 'jack' found


I've checked the installed packages, and JACK is installed as jackd2. I did not 
compile jack myself, it was installed from the package manager. Additionally 
there is no jack.pc file on my file system. Of course, after installing the 
newly compiled package, there was no JACK support either. From the LS log:

Registered MIDI input drivers: ALSA
Registered audio output drivers: ALSA


How should I go about solving this issue? With regards,

Tom
