Description Philipp Leonhardt 2014-02-27 05:45:10 UTC 
In combination with Gnome 3.8 and abi_x86_32
pulseaudio-4.99.4-r1 is not usable, as it needs bluez-5 which does not work on Gnome 3.8.
Is there any ability to restore the 4.0-r1?

Reproducible: Always

*pulseaudio-4.99.4-r1 (21 Feb 2014)

  21 Feb 2014; Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> +pulseaudio-4.99.4-r1.ebuild,
  -pulseaudio-4.0-r1.ebuild, -pulseaudio-4.99.4.ebuild:
  tmpfiles conf file is only needed with system-wide for openRC init.d script
  (#501870 by Pavel Volkov), only skip a test that fails due sandbox (#501846 by
  Emeric Maschino). Drop old.
Comment 2 Philipp Leonhardt 2014-03-05 05:40:44 UTC 
I saw you dropped the old pulseaudio-4.0-r1 but Gnome 3.8 Users with
ABI_X86="32 64"
really need this version.
Comment 3 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-03-05 06:05:47 UTC 
If you aren't using bluetooth headphones, as a workaround you can emerge 4.99.4-r1 with USE=-bluetooth.
Comment 4 Philipp Leonhardt 2014-03-05 08:20:59 UTC 
That's the problem, I'm using a Sennheiser bluetooth headset only.
I already remove bluetooth USE normally but I need this.

If it's not possible to get back the pulseaudio-4.0 with ABI_x86 there should at least be a blocker on Gnome-3.8 meta package for ABI_x86.
Comment 5 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2014-06-12 17:48:15 UTC 
5.0-r2 is compatible with both bluez versions, also gnome 3.8 was removed some time ago
