It is availab ein Ubuntu yes, however its in our universe component of the package archive, universe being unsupported by Canonical. If PulseAudio master was used in future versions of Ubuntu, I would feel comfortable knowing that the json c library being used will reguaruly receive upstrea maintenance, as that in turn makes it easier for Canonical to commit to supporting the package in long term releases.
