You do not need portaudio. Even if you don't disable it, it should fail 
if
your system doesn't meet the specs. If it's passing for some reason, we
need to patch the script that looks for it.

The issue seems to be one of conflicting requirements for portaudio,
where some apps require a different version of portaudio than we use -- 
they
   changed the API, I guess.  So on systems that have portaudio (but not
with the API *we* need), we'll configure-in portaudio, and then fail
   during the build.  On those systems, installing portaudio19-dev works
for *US*, but causes other things to fail, due to API incompatibilities.

I just *love* how, 20-years-on, Linux can't decide on which audio
subsystem it uses, so it supports all of them.  With conflicts.

hi tom, and thanks for getting back.

so, i see this:

-- Configuring gr-audio support...
--   Dependency Boost_FOUND = TRUE
--   Dependency ENABLE_GR_CORE = ON
--   Enabling gr-audio support.
--   Override with -DENABLE_GR_AUDIO=ON/OFF
-- Found ALSA 1.0.23
-- checking for module 'jack'
--   package 'jack' not found
-- checking for module 'portaudio'
--   package 'portaudio' not found
-- checking for module 'comedilib'
--   package 'comedilib' not found

and that means that even though jackd2 and libportaudio-dev are 
installed
on this squeeze system they are not found or usable for gnuradio.

i'm not versed on how to patch such thing so any help is greatly
appreciated i'm ready to provide more details and help test.

Tx!

Now I'm even more confused. From your cmake output here, it looks like
portaudio is not being built. So why is it being built? Something's not
right here.
