Yep. I didn't used to have the chrome binary package installed, but |

there are a couple things that I've never gotten to work in Chromium |

(e.g. Webex). |

I looked into that more, and I had misread the emerge output. It |
14 |
wasn't google-chrome that depended on jack, and now I can't figure out |
15 |
why it was installed. I did |
16 |
|
17 |
# emerge -C virtual/jack media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit |
18 |
# emerge -auvND world |
19 |
|

It didn't get reinstalled. And then a subsequenct |
21 |
|
22 |
# emerge --depclean --ask |
23 |
|
24 |
removed another half-dozen audio-related packagets (zita-* and |
25 |
realtime-*, whatever they are). I'm sure the next time I try to use |
26 |
audio on that machine it won't work. |

I used to think that someday Linux sound support would get |
29 |
straightened out, but it just keeps getting worse... |
