 "make" stage :(

 here's what i get:

 when i have a look in /usr/lib, there is no libjack.la.

 i'm using fedora core 2 planet ccrma kernel with jack-connection-kit-
 devel 0.99.36-0.1.cvs 
Jack is probably installed to a different library directory.
Can you do a "locate libjack.la" or "find / -name
'libjack.la'"?
I suspect it's hiding out in /usr/local/lib

Once you find where it's at, you can do:

export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS /location/of/file"

then run make again.

Hope this helps,
Mercury
