Bug 820332 – media-sound/pulseaudio-15.0-r1 stable request

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pacho Ramos 2021-10-26 08:47:13 UTC]

It fixes lots of issues present in our currently (old) stable version. Also works fine for me and enhances a lot bluetooth handling compared with 13.0

Thanks

planning on unmasking newer version with split libpulse to make it easier for users to disable USE=daemon, b/c right now it's got a lot of REQUIRED_USE hell

[Comment 2 Pacho Ramos 2021-10-26 09:18:03 UTC]

I am unsure if waiting for that... pulseaudio-15 is also an important gain for current stable users compared with old 13 version... and we will of course, stabilize splitted version when ready in the future

    profiles/base: stable-force media-sound/pulseaudio[daemon] for now
    
    Needed to avoid REQUIRED_USE hell for now until we sort out
    the libpulse split. Let's get the shiny PA 15 to users.

Spoke to leio and agreed on just stable-forcing USE=daemon, let's crack on

Yeah, I think you're right, and we've got a decent compromise by stable-forcing USE=daemon

Hi I'm here because I read comment in 
/usr/portage/profiles/base/package.use.stable.force
Thanks for undergoing work !
Is there another bug that tracks libpulse split? I did not find it.
Again, thanks Sam James for awesome support !

[Comment 15 Arnaud Vallette d'Osia 2022-06-10 18:25:59 UTC]

Also adding "force daemon flag" in this bug's title would cut down the chase for others :-)

    profiles/base: drop pulseaudio forced USE=daemon
    
    It's no longer relevant with the now-stabled split packages.
