Quoting https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/tree/package/jack2/jack2.mk#n10
"JACK2_DEPENDENCIES = libsamplerate libsndfile alsa-lib host-python"

I tried to compile celt051 with jack2 but somehow celt051 was not 
detected by jack2.

I built an allyesconfig, but the dependency check was done by the fli4l
[1] build system. Fli4l uses buildroot to compile its binaries but it 
extends buildroot by a sandbox mechanism. Before installing binaries to 
staging and target dirs all packages are installed into a package-
specific sandbox directory first, in this directory all linked libraries 
of the package binaries are detected and checked whether they are part of 
<pkg>_DEPENDENCIES, if not, the build fails.

The list of packages I talked about[2] was gathered that way, so there is 
no guarantee I caught all dependencies, the same is true for the method 
you described. Thats the reason I did not bother much about the missing 
celt051 detection by jack2.

Btw, fli4l uses the top-level parallel make option ;)
