LMMS Jack2

Not sure if this is the best place for this. Here it goes though. I am running Debian Wheezy with the KXstudio repos. The version of LMMS included is a bit old and there is a key feature in newer versions I want to be able to use, specifically export track functionality. So I downloaded the latest stable source figured I would compile the latest version.

So after a whole bunch of making sure I had dev packages for the latest dependencies it came down to if I wanted Jack support it would have to be Jack1. On my desktop I elected to compile without Jack support for now. Everything is fine. However I really do want to add jack support particularly when I repeat these steps on my laptop but I also use Claudia extensively for live setups so I need Jack2. So I guess I am trying to figure out if there is a way to compile LMMS for jack2?

The KXStudio repos should be up to date? Just update!!

Building LMMS should work with either JACK, and even running LMMS compiled with jack2 on a jack1 system: http://trac.jackaudio.org/wiki/Q_differenc_jack1_jack2

Cmake seems to find Jack2 just fine on the Ubuntu box I had at hand, so I'd expect it to be pretty painless on Debian too.
