Description:

Package ecasound 2.9.0-2 installs a file in / (the root directory).

$ pacman -Qo /ecasound.rb
/ecasound.rb is owned by ecasound 2.9.0-2

$ ls -l /ecasound.rb
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5158 Mar 5 15:37 /ecasound.rb


Additional info:
- First line of the file says:
# This is a native implementation of Ecasound's control interface for Ruby.

- The only relevant thing i see could be line 33 in the PKGBUILD :
# use vendor_ruby for ruby files
sed -e 's/CONFIG\["sitedir"\]/CONFIG\["vendordir"\]/' -i configure

But i have no idea how.

- Seems like it happened after upgrade from 2.9.0-1


Steps to reproduce:
Install the package, and ls /
This task depends upon

Indeed, thanks for reporting. This is due to the ruby update which deprecated some things. Namcap's warning didn't scare me enough to take a look before pushing the last update (I thought it was a vendor/site dir issue which I could look into later). Sorry about that. Fix rolling soon.
