details, I just remember thinking when I was reading that some of the heat
that seemed to be being generated seemed to be coming from possible
misunderstandings or quick scanning of posts.

Hi Drew,
If you are referring to me, then I would like to remove myself from the

not a bad possibility.)
I think what he was saying was that jackdbus would check for jackd in
$PATH and complain bitterly / refuse to sintall / whatever. Not that it
would try and control what $PATH was set to. Or perhaps you got that and
I misunderstood your objection. Krzysztof Foltman wrote:

Programs that do that kind of things have a name
here: malware. I'm the boss on my system, and I
will decide what goes into $PATH. Just as I decide
which filesystems get mounted and where, and how
permissions are set. I am currently concerned about PA usage for non
technical
users and/or "Ralf Maldorf's" attitude towards Linux Audio as a platform.
Cheers.

If there is proper understanding and objections /
differences still
remain, that is one thing. So often in life we are disagreeing with what
we think people mean when if fact we may agree with what they actually
mean.
