-QjackCtl is a simple Qt application to control the JACK sound server.
+Provides a simple GUI dialog for setting several JACK daemon
+parameters, which are properly saved between sessions, and a way
+control of the status of the audio server daemon. With time, this
+primordial interface has become richer by including a enhanced
+patchbay and connection control features.
+
+Note:
+This package optionally uses POSIX filesystem capabilities to execute with
+elevated privileges (required for realtime audio processing). This
+may be considered a security/stability risk. Please read
+http://www.slackbuilds.org/caps/ for more information. To enable
+capabilities, pass SETCAP=yes to the script.
+
+Optional dependency: portaudio and jack2
