22 Ok, ok how about this
23
24 alsa-driver-0.9.0_beta10.ebuild
25 alsa-lib-0.9.0.1_beta10.ebuild
26 alsa-util-0.9.0.1_beta10.ebuild
27
28 The .1's will correspond to the "a" beta suffix of the tarball. That
29 way we can go to 0.9.0.2 and so on if they happend to release another
30 beta10 version and the users will still know that it is a beta from the
31 ebuild name. (I hope the release alsa-1.0 soon so this just goes away :)
32
33 I will also try to throw together ebuilds for the alsa tools and OSS
34 Compat library.
