Comment 21 for bug 84900

This is a sad thing - and there's still no solution.

Is there any decision yet regarding a separate "libasound2-plugins-extra" package?
Just leaving libasound-jack out in the rain is a bit hard, don't you think?

Especially, because people doing audio *DO* want almost everything to go through jack in order to record it (and are very often not the ones able or willing to compile stuff)
