This is gonna be messy, if it can be done at all. Given that Fedora is at 0.109.2 already, we'd have a hard time talking the maintainer into using that build, so we'd be looking at a compat package or an ffado-jackd package or something along those lines. :\ For grins, I started poking at a local build of it (simply as jack) here. At the moment, its falling down like so: [...] gcc -shared .libs/alsa_driver.o .libs/generic_hw.o .libs/memops.o .libs/hammerfall.o .libs/hdsp.o .libs/ice1712.o .libs/usx2y.o -Wl,--whole-archive ../alsa-midi/.libs/libalsamidi.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive -lasound -lm -lpthread -ldl -m64 -mtune=generic -m64 -mtune=generic -Wl,-soname -Wl,jack_alsa.so -o .libs/jack_alsa.so /usr/bin/ld: ../alsa-midi/.libs/libalsamidi.a(alsa_seqmidi.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC ../alsa-midi/.libs/libalsamidi.a(alsa_seqmidi.o): could not read symbols: Bad value Might be some requirements on an older ALSA as well, I dunno... > On Tue, 2008-07-22 at 23:28 -0400, Jarod Wilson wrote: > > So tonight, I finally spent some time hacking on ffado and a spec file > > for it...
