*** Please type your report below this line ***
When I try to start jack (with 'jackstart' as root) I get this error:
jackstart: cannot get realtime capabilities, current capabilities are:
=ep cap_setpcap-ep
probably running under a kernel with capabilities disabled,
a suitable kernel would have printed something like "=eip"
According to the jack site, a two-line kernel patch is required for jack
to operate. This patch does not appear to be packaged, and no direct
mention of it is mentioned in the README.Debian.
I believe that the patch should be packaged, or included with the jackd
package, and a mention of it should be placed in README.Debian.

Hello,
This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or
are involved with.
Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 450 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.
As this an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).
To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:
reopen 229709
thanks bts
Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
229709@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.
This is the second massive wnpp closing that is being done. The next close
will be done on inactive RFPs older than 365 days and finally, an automatic
script will close, by default, *inactive* RFPs when they reach one year of
inactivity.
A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.
Thanks for your cooperation,
