Is this symptom reproducible on current 8.04 or 8.10 alpha?

[Opaflamme (opaflamme)]

Yes for Hardy 8.04, i discover the problem when i upgrade from 7.10.
For Intrepid 8.10, i don't know.

Works for me, for the record:

I tested both a fresh Intrepid install on my eee 1000 and a fresh
Hardy install (on Amazon EC2). Both ran "jack --help" OK with the
installed version of python.

$ sudo apt-get install jack

$ jack --help
