    <p>I came here just to let you know that I had problems like this
      with Ubuntu as well. I wanted to let you know, though, that if you
      want more reliable access to software like this, an Arch-based
      system may help you. I constantly had problems of not having
      new-enough software, and compiling things from source, only to
      find that I didn't have new-enough libraries to compile software.
      When I switched to Arch though, that all changed. Packages install
      faster, I am able to compile whatever I need, I don't need to
      compile a lot of software, and the AUR even has mididings if your
      fix stops working for you! And, there is a pro-audio group package
      that installs tons of great audio software.<br>
    </p>
    <p>If you are interested in Arch and want some help, feel free to
      message me, I can help you out. Try out Manjaro and see if you
      like that, it gives you an install of Arch with everything setup
      for you.<br>
