Thanks!
Those are my thoughts exactly, I definitely agree that builds should
be reproducible. In this particular instance I asked the question
because it was an extra change since the version in testing; had I
removed the dependency I would have disabled jack support in the call
to configure as you suggest (and re-enabled it for Wheezy).
