We had some problems with the new version of ecasound (it failed many 
builds). A new version that should have fixed all the issues has been 
uploaded yesterday evening (it's in NEW now).

In the future libaudio-ecasound-perl should build depend on 
libecasoundc-dev instead of libecasoundc2.2-dev.

Cheers
