Full ACK, OTOH let's put our
hands on our hearts ... Who is using Linux
audio and doesn't compile one or two things depending to JACK ;)? I vote
for one package for all!
Hopefully they will think again before following this.
Why should all users get the files on their disks that are needed only for
debugging and developing?
Disk-space might not be an issue with your state-of-the-art-all-inclusive
machine, but not everyone has such a thing. Some have older machines still
running with <20GB disk, some have netbooks with only small (but fast!) solid
state disks.
Now why again should they install gigs of headers and debugging-symbols when
they just need the libs and apps to run jack and assorted?

Then we have 2 packages for each (jackd, jackd-dev), that's fine, but
why the hell we need a separate package for jackd and libjack ? I never
hear about a use-case of jackd without libjack or opposite ?
