Hi,
We've been supporting jack sound server [1] for a long time.
Currently, we're supporting jack1 as
media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit. However, jack2 has been out for
quite some time.
As its name does not imply, jack2 is not really the successor of jack1
but rather another implementation of the same protocol [2]. As such, I
don't think it is wise to add jack2 as an update to jack1 in
media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit but rather to add a new package
(media-sound/jack2) along with a virtual that packages can depend onto.
Proposed ebuild for the virtual is here:

Best regards,
Alexis.
