Waiting is fine for  me, but actually this  new package does not break
any other  package depending on  the current jack library  package.

As far package dependences are concerned they are satisfied by a dummy
libjack0.100.0-0 package  which in turns  depends on the  new libjack0
package,  while  the shared library file /usr/lib/libjack-0.100.0.so.0
shipped by the  current package is replaced  in the  new package by  a
symlink to libjack.0.0.23, making the linker happy.

All the packages I've  tested (hydrogen, ardour, zynaddsubfx, ..) work
fine with the new packges.

Ciao!
