Similar to how Arch does it (https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/packages/pulseaudio/trunk/PKGBUILD), can you simply strip out libpulse and install libpulse libs only on Gentoo? I personally dont use the whole Pulseaudio server, and only need libpulse for running Steam natively without the runtime. Hopefully, with the release of pipewire, Steam will drop Pulseaudio eventually. But is there a way to strip out libpulse and install the libpulse libs only in an ebuild?

but what would provide "pulseaudio" that other applications build against?

Basically a virtual is needed and all the ebuilds updated. Can it be done? sure, is it being done? no ... patches welcome
Arch as a predominantly binary distro has a lot of flex where the developers can knife and fork such stuff together... Gentoo is a different ballgame where every users machine is a distributor packaging machine with their own local settings. The permutations are larger than the number of atoms in the universe

Just modify ebuild in your repo for your needs.

Im asking what the "_pick" equivalent would be for an ebuild. This one is a bit more tricky. What ebuild command would I use to strip libpulse libs only?

_pick is a internal function that you can rewrite with correct path for portage system.

Code:
[ebuild   R    ] media-sound/pulseaudio-15.0::pg_overlay  USE="glib -X -alsa -alsa-plugin -asyncns -bluetooth -daemon -dbus -doc -elogind -equalizer -gdbm -gstreamer -gtk -ipv6 -jack -lirc -native-headset -ofono-headset -orc (-oss) (-selinux) -sox -ssl (-system-wide) -systemd -tcpd -test -udev -webrtc-aec -zeroconf" 0 KiB
works fine for me.

Whether its stripping or picking, i feel like im asking for the same end result on how to do this thing.

I thought of a possible solution. I'll create a custom pulseaudio.ebuild that builds minimal as possible, along with the "-daemon" flag mentioned previously, and do a "insinto /usr/lib" and "doins /path/to/libpulse/folder". This does leave a questiom about how to "insinto /usr/lib64" for the 64bit libs though. Any thoughts anyone?

Fortunately, I was able to mimic the Arch libpulse only package using this "package.use" file.

https://github.com/shoober420/rootscripts/blob/main/etc/portage/package.use/pulseaudiouse

Thank you guys very much.

pretty sure that was what was said in this thread based upon what the v15 ebuild exposes....

yes, I was working with an older pulseaudio ebuild from a custom Gentoo overlay before. with the release of 15.0 ebuild recently, and that package.use file, im now able to do the desired installation tweaking the new 15.0 ebuild.
