Hi Chris,
Are you implying that your app will restart JACK when it is the condition I
describe?
On another note:
I cloned the git repository. Confirmed the depends.
My results following the README:
sudo make PREFIX=/usr install
pandoc -f markdown -t rst README.md > README.rst
/bin/sh: 1: pandoc: not found
Makefile:10: recipe for target 'README.rst' failed
make: *** [README.rst] Error 127
Or:
sudo make install-user
python setup.py install --user
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 4, in <module>
import setuptools
ImportError: No module named setuptools
Makefile:24: recipe for target 'install-user' failed
make: *** [install-user] Error 1
Thanks!

No. My app ist just an example of an app that uses Python to control
JACK via DBUS, something that your app could do too.
On another note:
I cloned the git repository. Confirmed the depends.
From the readme (bottom):
"If you want to install jack-select from a Git repository clone, you'll
also need the Python docutils to build the man page from the ReST
source. If you want to create the ReST version of the README from the
Markdown source, you'll also need pandoc (only neccessary when you want
to create a source distribution archive)."
Or:
sudo make install-user
That should be "make install-user" (like it says in the readme).
python setup.py install --user
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 4, in <module>
import setuptools
ImportError: No module named setuptools
Install python-setuptools (or a similar named package, if you're not on
a Debian-like system). This isn't mentioned in the readme, since
setuptools nowadays is the status-quo universal requirement for
installing Python build / packages from source. All modern Linux distros
install this by default, AFAIK.

Hi Chris,
I thought I'd checked for setup tools, but I guess not. After installing
that it did more.
the *sudo make install-user *was just one attempt I made after the initial
no sudo didn't work.
Not sure if it's an issue but in amongst the output from the make was this:
byte-compiling build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/jackselect/jackselect.py to
jackselect.pyc
File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/jackselect/jackselect.py", line 265
def handle_jackctl_signal(self, *args, signal=None, **kw):
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Also, I noted that, though I'm using nothing but 3.x python, the install
sent stuff to:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
The make output makes no mention of python3.
And I don't see anything for jackselect in either pythonXX/dist-packages
But, the example app you provided in this thread works if I put it in the
.../jack-select/jackselect directory.
I know next to nothing about the install process...so this be may perfectly
normal.
Also, it appears in a quick glance at jackselect.py that the paths are
wored to places on your PC. Am I reading that right?
and
from .jackcontrol import ...
Does the .jackcontrol imply a relative directory?
(apologies for a programming question...I searched a bit but couldn't find
any reference...probably my using the wrong search terms.)

Ah yes, the Makefile assumes that "python" is Python 3, which
unfortunately isn't true for most distros. I fixed that now, but you can
also already override the python binary used by the Makefile:
sudo make PYTHON=python3 install
But, the example app you provided in this thread works
Good, that means you have all the run-time dependencies installed.
setuptools is just needed when you want to install jack-select via the
Makefile (which runs "python setup.py install" to install the jackselect
Python package).
if I put it in
the .../jack-select/jackselect directory.
Yes, because it uses "from jackselect.jackcontrol import ...", so the
"jackselect" Python package has to be either installed in the
system-wide Python module path or be available in the current working
directory where you start the script.

No.
from .jackcontrol import ...
Does the .jackcontrol imply a relative directory?
Yes, relative to the file that uses this form of importing. This only
works within Python packages, though. Thatswhy in my example I used
"from jackselect.jackcontrol import ..." (without the leading dot). See
here for an explanation:
https://docs.python.org/2.5/whatsnew/pep-328.html
But you could also just take the "jackcontrol.py" file, and put it next
to your application's main script and then just use "from jackcontrol
import ...".
