I'll repost > any progress I've made. I got a few emails from Pieter about packaging faado (Free from 64Studio and myself were copied). Does not look too easy - various issues.

Or do a jack test build/install in the machine in which you have the faado libraries installed. Stock jack packages do not include faado support. It may be better to package svn jack. I don't actually remember the state of faado support in the latest "stable" release (which has known problems and is not actually "stable" :-). Current svn is supposed to be better behaved than 0.109.x (current "stable") and that is what I'm testing in Planet CCRMA right now and running in my laptop. The Planet CCRMA jack package is also better tuned for the realtime kernels I support. > Step 4) fix step 3 I'm forwarding you the thread from Pieter in a separate email...
