Description Carlos Laué 2008-06-20 23:11:02 UTC 
media-sound/lingot-0.7.6 uses up all available memory while running. Patch included.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install media-sound/lingot-0.7.6
2. Run the program
3. 

Actual Results:  
Program crashes after filling up all available memory.

Expected Results:  
The program should only use only some memory and run indefinitely.

I've found a thread on the lingot-devel mailing list related with the problem, http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/lingot-devel/2008-03/msg00000.html. Based on the information there I've created a little patch to stop the memory leaks. In my case the problem was solved. I'll also make the patch available upstream.
