Package: libpipewire-0.3-0 Version: 0.3.51-1+b1 Followup-For: Bug #1011130 Dear Maintainer,
just for the record (with a bit of pro-audio background). 1. i wholeheartedly welcome "pipewire" and cannot wait until it becomes the default soundsystem for Debian. (pulse be gone! it's been a pain) 2. i agree with vincent however, that there's no need to pull in the pipewire daemon by default. just like libjack1 does not Depend on/Recommend jackd1 (resp, libjack-jackd2-0 does not Depend on/Recommend jackd2). libjack uses "Suggests". libpuse0 uses "Suggests" for pulseaudio as well... 3. i understand sebastinas' annoyance if they feel somebody is on a crusade against pipewire (but i haven't followed any of the discussion except for this bug-report on the thread on debian-devel@ to acknowledge whether there is an actual crusade or not). cheers.
