Hi all/Luke,

This just showed up in my inbox:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/portaudio/+bug/360590

You might recall the nightmare that PortAudio not being compiled with
JACK support caused in Gutsy for Mixxx users:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/mixxx/+bug/183011

I just dug the changelog on the Ubuntu package to find out what
happened:
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/p/portaudio19/portaudio19_19+svn20071207-0ubuntu7/changelog

Specifically:
===================
portaudio19 (19+svn20071207-0ubuntu6) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Really disable jack this time. Forgot to work around this package's weird
    dependency generation for binaries.

portaudio19 (19+svn20071207-0ubuntu5) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Remove jack support again (hopefully temporarily till jack is in main),
    so portaudio v19 can be moved back into main.

 -- Luke Yelavich <[email protected]>  Tue, 10 Feb 2009 18:01:31 +1100
==================

On the bright side, the PortAudio non-mmap patch for PulseAudio
compatibility has been applied in Jaunty (I'm still poking upstream
about this). But for now, a lot of our users are going to be wondering
where JACK support went.

Help?

Thanks,
Albert

P.S. How do we stop regressions like this? Is it up to Mixxx to test
upstream Ubuntu beta versions each release?
