Hi Kevin,

you are using an older version of the unofficial repository for
current, the last one already has a fix for that (and builds
libffado-2.4.2).

http://cgit.ponce.cc/slackbuilds/commit/?h=libffado

also , this is not the place to discuss issues building stuff from
another repository and/or on current (SBo supports only the latest
stable version of Slackware), please use the dedicated LQ topic (be
sure to read very carefully its first post)
