media-video/ushare-1.1a-r1 compiles well with net-libs/libupnp-1.6.6 but fails with net-libs/libupnp-1.6.14

an ebuild says RDEPEND=net-libs/libupnp which isn't correct

media-video/ushare-1.1a-r1 being compiled with net-libs/libupnp-1.6.6 works as expected (at least with my xbox)

Depending on older versions isn't the correct way to solve a build problem against a newer version, so:

1) Please attach the entire failing build log to this bug report.
2) Please post your `emerge --info' output in a comment.

media-video/ushare was written for that old version. net-libs/libupnp-1.6.6 has some significant changes in api, so in order to keep dependency RDEPEND=net-libs/libupnp to work we have to rewrite some code in media-video/ushare.

I will try to fix ushare to make it compatible to new libupnp api and in case of succesful result i will attach a patch. But

- the patch may be relatively big
- there is no guarantee it is possible to keep compatibility with both versions
- such a patch is better be mailed to ushare developers instead of being put into portage
