PortAudio: Add missing -lsndio flag to fix build failure on Linux

[shengwen-tw]

Overview

Fixes a compilation error introduced in #76, where the make all target fails during the build of the PortAudio library on GNU/Linux systems.

The failure was caused by a missing -lsndio linker flag. Adding this flag resolves the issue and allows the build to complete successfully.

Environment

• Linux kernel: 6.2.6-76060206-generic
• Distribution: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)

@Cuda-Chen:
Hi, could you help me check the package dependencies here?
Thanks.

@shengwen-tw ,

I can help to check the package dependencies.
While checking, here is the environment of mine for your reference:

• Distribution: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)
• Linux Kernel: 5.15.0-141-generic (using uname -r)

Hi @shengwen-tw ,

It seems that PortAudio somehow uses sndio as an audio multiplexer on your environment.
You may visit the homepage of sndio for more information.

So you may choose one of the following option:

1. Just install libsndio-dev.
2. Force PortAudio to use PulseAudio/PipeWire as there are more common on many Linux distributions, including Ubuntu.
