[Fedora-music-list] firewire audio support

[Anthony Green]

I just got my presonus firebox working on rawhide.  If any of you are
interested in firewire audio device support, you'll want to watch these
bugzillas...

libfreebob was submitted to FE.  It's a userland driver library for many
firewire audio devices:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=205929

Once libfreebob is in, we need to add a BuildRequires: libfreebob-devel
to jack-audio-connection-kit and rebuild.

Then there's a patch for qjackctl, to enable the freebob driver:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=205913

And, finally, libavc1394 needs to be updated in order to build
libfreebob.  This is the part I'm most concerned about since I don't
know what it will take to get the maintainer to upgrade this library.
It may be too late for FC6, but I hope not.
