Issue: media-libs/libspiro misses USE=static-libs and installs '.a' files.
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: trolltoo_tinderbox)

The best solution is avoid to build the '.a' files by touching the configure. In case the buildsystem makes your life hard, a good compromise would be just remove the files.

NOTE: If you want to change the summary, to avoid auto-filed duplicates, please at least keep the word 'static-libs'

Resolved by removing media-libs/libspiro from the overlay, as the ebuild that depended on it was removed some time ago.

A newer version of libspiro is currently available in the mv overlay as media-gfx/libspiro.
