trivial patch fixing the problem
One more thing: current ebuild gives QA Notice: The following shared libraries lack a SONAME for this lib. I just installed latest ~arch libflashsupport and pulseaudio and flash works just fine to pulseaudio. I suggest testing those. (In reply to comment #3) > I just installed latest ~arch libflashsupport and pulseaudio and flash works > just fine to pulseaudio. I suggest testing those. Same here. I thought that this bug was fixed ages ago, but it's still not the case. But today I came across http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-689291.html While I can't be sure this was the cause, it still looks like nobody looked at my patch. Again, for pulseaudio to work correctly with flash, when run system-wide (via init.d script), lookup path HAS TO BE MODIFIED (as stated in comment #1). I meant of course initial report, not comment #1. Must remember to post after cooling down. Why was that bug never fixed? I just figured out the same fix after installing pulseaudio and libflashsupport on my machine. But why did i have to when the problem and the fix are known for so long. The only thing that might be missing is a patch to the README of libflashsupport. Maintainer what kept you from fixing this obvious bug? I am really upset right now. I tried the latest pulseaudio (media-sound/pulseaudio-0.9.10-r1) and it did not solve the problem. And even if it would solve the problem it would require the user to ~keyword more than is needed to get flash+pulse running. Not to mention the fact that new pulseaudio may depend on bluetooth stuff that also needs to be ~keyworded or would require custom useflags for pulseaudio to prevent the dependency.

libflashsupport-1.2.ebuild.patch
@flameeyes: Do you happen to know when the patch changed from /var/lib/run/pulse to /var/run/pulse? I don't want to make this change across the board if there are still systems that use the older path. The current one can be depended upon for all users to be there. But do me a favour and don't use that sed, use sed -i -e 's:/var/lib/run/pulse:/var/run/pulse:' instead.. the backslash quoting makes my eyes bleed! (In reply to comment #10) > The current one can be depended upon for all users to be there. Thanks very much. I have applied the patch, but made it look nicer. > the backslash quoting makes my eyes bleed! Is that bleed, or flame? |
