profiles: unmask split pulseaudio packages |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
This is a move towards making it easier for users to choose |
| 11 |
between pulseaudio and pipewire for their audio needs. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
We now have: |
| 14 |
- media-sound/pulseaudio (a transitory metapackage, installs no files, just |
| 15 |
enforces deps with USE flags); |
| 16 |
- media-libs/libpulse (the pulseaudio libraries, needed by clients using |
| 17 |
pulseaudio's protocol to speak to pipewire, but is not the pulseaudio daemon) |
| 18 |
- media-sound/pulseaudio-daemon (the pulseaudio daemon, to be used instead |
| 19 |
of pipewire if desired) |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
While these are technically RC/pre-releases (and I have a strong reluctance |
| 22 |
against keywording those usually), we have a good relationship |
| 23 |
with upstream who report they've been quiet developmentwise since these tags, |
| 24 |
these versions have been tested & work well, and this will help to improve |
| 25 |
the experience for Gentoo users in choosing which audio server they want. So, |
| 26 |
all in all, a win. |
