Cannot Find -ljack Linux Installation

[PaddyMonahanLBNY]

Hello I am attempting to install CDP on my Linux desktop and I encountered an issue after making and configuring everything. The error output is :
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ljack: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [dev/externals/paprogs/listaudevs/CMakeFiles/listaudevs.dir/build.make:98: ../NewRelease/listaudevs] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:7645: dev/externals/paprogs/listaudevs/CMakeFiles/listaudevs.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:156: all] Error 2

I installed the portaudio packages and properly installed the libaaio package, but it seems to be hung on this one thing. Is this a separate program I should have installed via repository before beginning or is there instructions to install it that I missed?

Thank you for your help!

Hello, yes, this means that jack is not installed (or not in the "usual place"). Jack is often installed as standard in Linux systems ("Audio connection Kit"); otherwsie it will need to be installed. You can do a quick check to see if jack is installed, and where, using the command "locate jack"; you would be looking for the library file 'libjack.a'. Probably you can install it using your package manager - apt-get or whichever. Then the build (of the CDP audio programs) may need to be run again so CMake can "find" the full jack installation. RD.
