that's why I have an

But that does mean you have build the whole audio distro yourself...
Would be nice if there will be a 64studio based on Debian testing...
Success!
I'm beginning to suspect that it's impossible to keep an audio distro up
to date, and that I'll have to do it manually. Arch64 has a great
system, but their precompiled binaries are very vanilla, and the user
"experience" felt very patched together. It was a chore to do very basic
things, like access my DVD-R (it could only do so in root).
I love how polished Ubuntu is, but keeping some software packages up to
date is a chore. I don't think I'm getting around it, though. I just
wish I could figure out why I can't compile vamp-sdk, or why it is I
need that to compile Rubber Band to begin with.
I think what I'm going to do is make a list of software to remove from
my system, and then simply keep up on that software manually, and hope I
can keep it all working.
