Hello everyone!
I was wondering: Since I had some troubles of late with my jack1, I'd like
to instal jack2. But: Are they API and binary compatible? So would I have to
rebuild all my JACK apps or will it still work?
you do not need to rebuild anything.
the only thing that you must do is to ensure that either:
1) you remove the existing version
OR
2) you overwrite the existing version
how easy (1) is depends on your distribution. apt-based systems are
hard to use for (1).
for (2) you need to build from source with --prefix=/usr (assuming the
previous version was installed normally)
if you end up with 2 versions of JACK things will break. this is true
even if they are two different versions of the same "family" of JACK
implementations.
