Package: meterbridge
Version: 0.9.2-13+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Apparently, meterbridge can be used with pipewire-jack which allows replacing a Jack server with pipewire.

Thus, the dependency on jackd could be softened, IMHO.

Maybe this could be handled globally by pipewire-jack providing some kind of jack-daemon / jackd replacement in dpkg...

Hope this makes sense, and helps.

In the meantime, it's possible to install with dpkg --ignore-depends, but that's largely suboptimal.

Best regards,
