    expressly DO NOT WANT to use it, just to use a KDE app.

    The bug was reported against libjack in #248665; but apparently they've already decided to let it stand. This situation is unacceptable: I
    refuse to upgrade kdelibs4 to this version which requires jackd.

    Libs I can live with; freaking server processes that I do not want as
    cruft are infuriating.

    JACKD can only be started manually. There is no "freaking server
    process" if you don't explicitly with your own fingers
    choose to start jackd manually.

    There should be no scripts that start jackd. Since in the future there
    will be a better way of starting jackd, all these scripts are misplaced.

    Robert.

    Point made. I haven't worked with jackd yet, so I wasn't quite clear on what its purpose was.
