Hmm, there's a question. I would be inclined to apt-get remove the CCRMA
package, download the sources, build, and install using "make install" rather
than bothering with an RPM. Probably nothing else depends on Rosegarden, so
that shouldn't cause any consistency problems, and it can always be replaced
by a later CCRMA RPM (Rosegarden's "make uninstall" should work fine).
Another question of course is whether you'd have all the necessary
dependencies for building RG, rather than just installing the package.
btw, if you were going for that route, it would probably be worth using
Rosegarden CVS rather than 0.9.9 -- it's had quite a few fixes (including
this very workaround for synths that don't like these events, which I just
committed).
An alternative fix would be to filter the "all sound off" events as they
arrive at jack_fst (perhaps by modifying the jack_fst code so as to
substitite an "all notes off" event instead), or find a way of filtering and
modifying the MIDI events en route. Either way, it's a bit of a pain for
such a simple problem.
