Did I break the record for shortest time to post ebuilds after a release?

Philip, indeed you are rapid :-), thanks!

Will wait for commiting of the ebuilds into the portage tree.

*** Bug 93942 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

there is no need to attach the old ebuilds, if you've made changes attach a
diff. in this case it's more or less just a bump. also take a look at the
following document:

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=3

there are some minor changes, e.g. one patch was fixed upstream and I commented
it out.  all are ~arch masked.  i haven't scrutinized the ebuilds the way a dev
would or should.  they do work.  at least one gives the same pre-existing QA
warnings as the original.

fixed in cvs, versions bumped. thanks for reporting

Is it possible to make ALSA and wine compatible again ? The problem is with
this
definition in conf.h:

...
int snd_names_list(const char *interface, snd_devname_t **list);
...

Wine (and everything WIN32-derived: *COM, you know) uses interface as reserved
word (#defined as struct for C/C++ but used by some MS-derived tools as
separate
keyword). So in WINE this becomes:

...
int snd_names_list(const char *struct, snd_devname_t **list);
...

Obviously gcc do not like this at all! Can we replace interface with some other
word ? interface_name or something. Just in header, of course: ALSA itself does
not use COM...

i don't use wine at all. which conf.h are you talking about? i'm on the sound
alias and get these mails, therefor removing myself from cc list. otherwise i
get these mails twice. please open a seperate bug about your issue. thanks 

Please open a new bug for that but yes, that's a bug which needs to be fixed,  
interface is a keyword also for icc for example. 
__interface is a good name for such a thing, like a recent glibc change used 
in netinet/in.h. 
 
 

I would seriously suggest that that issue be submitted upstream to the alsa
folks directly: http://www.alsa-project.org/  They have a bug tracker there.  
Creating a special patch that only gentoo folks would use makes little sense if
there's a more serious compatibility problem with alsa and wine.

I've created new bug (#94329) and submitted bug-report to ALSA project as well.
I still think gentoo-only fix should be applied till next version of ALSA will
be released...
