It would be really good to have jack2. But I'm not sure if we can dump
jack1 yet. Mut the upstream doesn't look like they will abandon jack1
soon.

My proposal is to use "alternatives" for parallel installation, the
way java does. Then the user can switch between jack1 and jack2 as he
wants.

Is it okay with everyone if I write a specfile for jack2 that uses alternatives?
