Thank you. I'll keep it in mind. Although I didn't find it difficult to
build Ardour from source. So far everything seems to work fine. Probably
my build does not have all features. But as long as I don't need them,
that may even be better. If I need more one day, I'll reconsider your
suggestion.

Ingo
