ecasound needs a transition. I already uploaded the version with the renamed
package to experimental and tested that both reverse build dependencies
(libaudio-ecasound-perl and soundscaperenderer) build fine (soundscaperenderer
is the only reverse dep that would be affected by the symbols renaming).
