Hi Alex I'm not familiar with ecasound but looking at the output of eix I don't see it in the pro-audio tree, it seems to be in portage proper, maybe you could file a bug on bugs.gentoo.org and ask for it to be bumped there? I don't mean to sound funny or anything about this but if a package is in the portage tree already then in my humble opinion it makes sense for Gentoo developers to maintain it rather than duplicate the effort in the pro-audio overlay. Please see this list for all ecasound bugs, I notice a bump request for 2.7.1: http://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL+ecasound I looked briefly at the homepage of Nama but I have little experience packaging perl applications on Gentoo and the dependencies look tricky to get right. It looks as though Nama could be installed by g-cpan somehow or maybe a nama-9999 ebuild could possibly be made. Sorry I couldn't be of more help and thanks for your emails. Best regards Gavin
