the ecasound utilizes the USE=pic flag, apparently to "fix" something on amd64 fix the package so that the USE=pic flag is not utilized and that the code is always generated properly for all architectures
Latest version seems to work fine for me here on amd64, so I dropped the pic useflag from that, when arches will mark that stable I'll complete closing this up.
What version are we supposed to be marking? The latest was just added a few days ago. Why not just revbump the old build since that seems to have the flag missing as well now?
If this is not *so* urgent, I think you can wait for latest ecasound to prove himself good (aka, wait the usual 30 days), then mark and the pic problem is gone. So if someone can start testing this already, the bugs can be found now instead than a month from now when we're asking for true stable marking :)
Added a status so people can remember of this :)
Okay arches, please start considering this for stable marking, thanks.

Problem fixed, was trivial because the directory was feeded by the ebuild itself.

sparc stable.
Closing.
