Description Dominique Michel 2019-10-13 19:57:27 UTC

libsdl2 have jack support. The ebuild don't have any jack USE, which imply jack support will be enabled and compiled if configure find the jack-audio-connection-kit files, and it will be skipped if it doesn't find them.

Also note than, on my system, for an sdl application to use jack audio, it have to be run with:

SDL_AUDIODRIVER="jack" my_sdl_app

So maybe the ebuild must also have an USE conditional elog message about this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit
2. emerge media-libs/libsdl2
3.

Any update on this? I've had EXTRA_ECONF="--disable-jack-shared --enable-jack" for a long time with the virtual/jack dependency missing.

Since it's my default audio output I preferred it not to be dynamically loaded too (--disable-jack-shared makes it have same behavior as libasound/libpulse and actually link against libjack.so).
