Have you tried the 1.2 -devel package? You might find it's sufficient to 
satisfy Ardour, but I don't actually know.

If it needs 2.x, and you can't find a devel package for your currently 
installed version, you're either going to have to uninstall the current 
version and anything that depends on it or reinstall it from source I'm 
afraid.

I dream of a day when all this stuff will be _finished_ and we won't have to 
jump through all these hoops. Certainly things are getting easier, but 
audio's an area where Linux is still catching up.

Good luck,

Joe
