Stop that FUD. Ok, a lot was broken until last year, but I fixed
everything and worked closely together with upstreams.
If you have something that needs improvement, simply tell me.
In general, calling the pro-audio stack in Debian to be broken is barely
justifiable. Hint: Torben uses Debian unstable.
Of course, I cannot be held responsible for our spin-offs like Ubuntu in
all its incarnations (studio, xubuntu, kubuntu, whatever).
Here's an article where some of the
technicalities are discussed in the

Old stuff. Check the expiry date of your truths. Reality changes over
time.
What's broken for which distro is half OT, IMO the topic should be the
free choice of JACK1 and JACK2. At the end it's not important if there
is one package or if there are 5 packages for each JACK. JACK3, DBUS at
the moment are also less important.
