mozilla-thunderbird needs alsa to compile I added alsa USE-flag to configure it with: --disable-ogg --disable-wave tested and works on ~AMD64 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. do not use alsa 2. emerge mozilla-thunderbird 3.

Package alsa was not found in the pkg-config search path.

Created attachment 222543 [details] ebuild with alsa use flag
Created attachment 222545 [details] x11-plugins/enigmail-1.0.1-r1 with alsa USE flag also breaks without alsa

I would rather keep the builds unified, also when attaching changes please use diffs. If you would fix this and update the attachment for a single diff I would be happy to get it applied for you.
Created attachment 222603 [details, diff] alsa USE flag for x11-plugins/enigmail-1.0.1-r1
Created attachment 222605 [details, diff] alsa USE flag for mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-3.0.3 sorry :)

This is a match to that of firefox/xulrunner. I will work to get this commited to the tree in a few days along with other bug fixes. Thanks for your attempt to rework your patches hope this example helps you in the future. Also please not a unified diff is always prefered in the gentoo community, diff -urN will get ya the results.
Thanks Jory for working to get this fix applied. There probably aren't many of us using thunderbird without alsa, but I also run into this bug today.
-r2 is in the tree :) thanks for your patients with this.
