Comment 3 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2024-01-11 18:09:17 UTC
This may be a removal candidate. Fails to build with recent Emacs versions and no visible upstream activity since 2017.

There is a fork at https://github.com/snegovick/ecb (which seems to address the cl-defmethod issue) but its status is unclear.
Comment 4 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2024-12-13 13:18:14 UTC
# Ulrich Müller <ulm@gentoo.org> (2024-12-13)
# Unmaintained upstream: last release (2.40) in 2009, last commit
# to upstream repository in 2017. Broken with Emacs 29.
# Removal on 2025-01-12. Bug #911288.
