Summary0007056: launch fails with no backened detected
DescriptionWith current git head (I first noticed at 52b6ad1b, have not bisected it yet)
I get the following dialog on launch "No audio/MIDI backends detected. Ardour cannot run. (This is a build/packaging/system error. It should never happen.)"

Even if jack is already running.
TagsNo tags attached.

It basically means that Ardour cannot find or cannot open lib*_audiobackend.so

I suggest to do a complete build.

   rm -rf build; ./waf configure ; ./waf


Maybe you did not waf configure since the 5.4 release tag, or maybe the compiler has changed since the last full build, or some library on the system has changed..

build issue - package manager changed jack out from under me without my noticing.

OK. closing this then since it's not an Ardour issue.
