Well, every single autoconf/automake-based software which builds a shared
library for internal or external use, normally uses libtool. Thus, I think that
the fact that jackdmp doesn't provide libjack.la is a bug.

I'm CC'ing Stéphane Letz. Although I don't know how to do it, I suppose that you
can make .la files with waf, since it claim(ed) to support libtool emulation.
