Not so. zita_ajbridge (zita_a2j and zita_j2a) can both be used by jack1 and
jack2.

I was using jack1's builtin version of zita_a2j but found that it cannot
recover from xruns as well as the current version of zita_a2j.
Consequently, I have this line in the "execute script after startup"
section of qjackctl:

    zita-a2j -j desktop -d jca -r %r -p %p &

and then "killall zita-a2j" in the "execute script on shutdown" section.

Maybe one day I or someone else will update the version of the code in
jack1 to match the current zita_ajbridge release.
