Jack plugin is now included in the main libasound2-plugins package.
Updated description and title.
** Description changed:
- As the a52, jack and maemo plugins are not included in ubuntu's
+ As the a52 and maemo plugins are not included in ubuntu's
libasound2-plugins package, it would be nice
I am interested in having the a52 plugin shipped with Ubuntu. If there
are difficulties to ship the jack plugin (main - universe), could
there be a package for at least the a52 plugin, or are there similar
difficulties?

Hey Philipp. As I understand it, it's not a technical problem (the code
has already been written and works), but a moral one. They don't want to
ship it by default, like the mp3, because it is covered by patents.
Nevertheless, not everyone lives in a locality where software patents
have any
This issue proposes a '-extra' package that would also be in universe,
thus having access to those plugins that cannot be included in the
normal package in main.
As for jack, rumours are it'll be re-included in main for lucid (e.g.

Many people in audio production need jack support to run jack aware audio apps.
Pulseaudio isn't a good solution with jack
Tired of repackaging libasound2-plugins every time i update my system.
Can' t repackage ia32-libs just to include jack (32 bits) plugin support to
run 32 bits apps on my
This problem cannot be solved at the moment, because jack is in
universe, and alsa-plugins is in main. Packages in main cannot be built
against packages in universe.

I'd like to second a request for such a package.
I've been setting up a home theatre PC running Ubuntu, and I found it
very frustrating that Ubuntu's version of the libasound2-plugins package
does not support a52 output, when Debian's does. I was connecting the
computer to an external amplifier
Any update? Does noone want to touch this?

Oh, nice (I just asked on #84900 about that). It would be a dramatic
improvement in the audio field. Please keep us tuned ;)

The real solution is not to ship an extras package, thereby duplicating
source, but to repromote the necessary bits to main. Working on this
for 9.04.

it seems sad to leave something as basic as jackd support in the realm
of go compile it yourself as this isn't an option for many
circumstances (eg a small machine being used for music editing) and
especially when the fix appears to be easy to do ... except for
political reasons. A binary install
This is an important feature, needed by many. Either add the jack
plugin back, or change the documentation and post a guide somewhere for
users to add this themselves.

I'm not sure if a severity of merely 'wishlist' is justified here: these
plugins (or at least the jack one) used to be available in this package,
but were removed when alsa-plugins was moved to main.
In other words, this bug requests a regression to be fixed, rather than
merely wishing a new
I second that request, especially because the alsa-jack plugin is pretty
much the only way to make any alsa compatible app jack aware.
And the Documentation of libasound2-plugins also refers to the
possibility to use jack, without shipping the jack plugin, which makes
the Documentation inaccurate
** Changed in: alsa-plugins (Ubuntu)
