The installed package in Linux Mint 17 is called jackd2.  There is also
a jackd package that is installed although that one is for all practical
purposes empty - don't know why it's there.

I would not mind so much to start it manually after each reboot, if
only I also rely on the pulse jack sink that gets Magically (and that's
with an uppercase 'M') started at boot, which enables the use of vlc,
firefox for audio output and as such is convenient.  Starting jackd
from the command line works well, but no sink in sight !
