This ebuild has interesting set of lines in econf namely "$(use_with pulseaudio) --without-pulseaudio". Well...? As a sidenote: I'm looking forward to see a guide for pulseaudio written for people who don't know it, cause webpage is for those who do. It seems to fail to adress some thing that are obvious for it's developers - for instance: how to use module-cli ( when started as system-wide daemon). And does anybody know if pulseaudio work with sdl, cause SDL_AUDIODRIVER=esd doesn't seem to work ? (OK, it's something for a forum, not bugzila)
Thanks for reporting, fixed now. About the guide, well, not much I can do :)
