Bug 679372 – dev-qt/qtmultimedia-5.12.1 ERROR: Feature 'pulseaudio' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.pulseaudio' failed.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Conrad Kostecki 2019-03-03 22:03:03 UTC]

dev-qt/qtmultimedia-5.12.1 will fail with USE="pulseaudio" as it only depends on media-sound/pulseaudio

Checking for PulseAudio >= 0.9.10... no
Checking for libresourceqt5... no
Done running configuration tests.

Configure summary:

Qt Multimedia:
  ALSA ................................... yes
  GStreamer 1.0 .......................... yes
  GStreamer 0.10 ......................... no
  Video for Linux ........................ yes
  OpenAL ................................. yes
  PulseAudio ............................. no
  Resource Policy (libresourceqt5) ....... no
  Windows Audio Services ................. no
  DirectShow ............................. no
  Windows Media Foundation ............... no

ERROR: Feature 'pulseaudio' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.pulseaudio' failed.

Solution is to add a depend on media-sound/pulseaudio WITH ENABLED USE="glib"
