When I emerge jack-audio-connection-kit, it installs most of the necessary files, but missing /usr/bin/jackstart, which is a really useful file. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge jack-audio-connection-kit Actual Results: jack-audio-connection-kit is installed, but /usr/bin/jackstart is missing Expected Results: /usr/bin/jackstart should be installed as well.

what version of JACK are you using? I just tested media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-0.99.0 which does install usr/bin/jackstart as expected.
closing this bug since it works ok with media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-0.99.0.
