Squeezeboxserver now becomes Logitech Media Servers, so we need new ebuild for this and some new perl modules too. It would be good if devs could merge new perl deps for SBS/LMS a little bit faster - squeezeboxserver-7.6.1 is still not in portage due some dependencies. Reproducible: Always
re 7.6.1 - I'm waiting for two blocker bugs for Perl modules to be resolved before the SBS ebuild can be committed. See bug#377825 blockers for details.
Added blocker bugs as dependencies - these are all Perl module bumps/new Perl modules. bug#389739 (Image::Scale) bug#389747 (DBD::SQLite) bug#390575 (YAML::LibYAML)
It makes sense to rename the ebuild to media-sound/logitechmediaserver if thats the official name now. And we can just do that with the version bump, so that the first version of logitechmediaserver in portage is 7.7. I recommend deleting all old squeezeboxserver ebuilds then. It doesnt make sense to have old versions installed anyway, because the software versions play along with the firmware versions of the hardware.

Actually, it might be best to do an actual package move - so that people will automatically get updates from the old name to the new name (since this is really just a change in name).
Necessary ebuilds available here: https://github.com/funtoo/funtoo-overlay/tree/master/dev-perl Please proceed with the new ebuild... and we'll see whether funtoo or gentoo adds it first ;) (Yes, I own a Squeezebox Touch)
OK, working on the new ebuild, and the main issue is that there is a new Media::Scan perl module that uses libmediascan whose source code is not in the noCPAN tarball. This goes on here: https://github.com/andygrundman/libmediascan Official release tarball here: http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/slim/7.7/trunk/vendor/CPAN/libmediascan-0.1.tar.gz This library will need ffmpeg compiled in statically, plus several other media gfx libs. This will then provide Scan.so, which Media::Scan wants to find but currently cannot load.
Stuart is a 7.7 ebuild possible now?
New package media-sound/logitechmediaserver-bin added. Thanks, Daniel, for the advice regarding dong a binary package, and thanks, Stuart, for putting this one together!
