Actually, I _am_ using Debian :-), though I don't do apt-get stuff, but
instead get all my packages "manually" (don't ask).

Still, this is very inconsistent then. I just double-checked, and
_according to the Jack website_, the most current release is still 0.34.
How can someone name a debianized packaged "0.38", when there is no
upstream 0.38 source archive? This is not good. He can call it
"jackit_cvs2002mmdd-v.deb" or similar if he wants, but calling it 0.38
is very confusing here.
