-r1 already contains a patch for the amd64 problem, i did not compare it to the official patch the automake 1.8 problem is a minor annoyance so, it's up to you to see if it is worth applying the official patch instead here it is : http://mikmod.raphnet.net/files/libmikmod-3.1.11-a.diff the changes : Tue Jun 3: I have released a small patch for libmikmod-3.1.11 (which now becomes libmikmod-3.1.11-a). While most of my work and attention goes on the 3.2.x series, I still receive occasional bug reports and patchs for the 3.1.11 version. There are not enough changes to make a full release, but many people may find this patch useful. BUGFIXES * libmikmod playback now works correcly on amd64 (type size problem) * fixed warning issued by automake 1.8 * config.sub and config.guess updated Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Thanks for the info, but there's not a pressing need for this version bump because as you say "there are not enough changes to make a full release"... and the major problems were fixed in our ebuild already.
