I think there is no necesary version of the jackd package. I usually can switch between versions without affecting Cadence. Cadence also has multiple ways to start jack. Additionally, Cadence...

I have a big system 9many packages) and it's a mix, mainly Debian testing but also stable, unstable, Ubuntu xenial, artful and some bionic + several PPAs. Multiarchitecture, but mainly...

I also tested other versions from my repos: python3-dbus.mainloop.pyqt5_5.10.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb (from `bionic`, **works**) python3-dbus.mainloop.pyqt5_5.11.3+dfsg-1+b2_amd64.deb (from `testing`, **fails**) EDIT: I could not test the version from debian stable, because it needs python3.5...

feeling the power of a new year coming (good luck everyone!) I tried to rework my system. The python version was pinned to 3.6 by some packages I don't really...

more wishes: * * "generalized frontends" (not sure how to describe this) * several functions have the same or very similar interface, low level functions shouldn't deal with this (->inconsistencies,...
