Package: mkchromecast
Version: 0.3.9~git20200902+db2964a-2
Severity: normal
I'm ending up with dozens of Mkchromecast sinks and monitors being
left behind possibly in response to starting multiple up at the same
time, crashing/being terminated and/or trying to put them under the
control of systemd. Problem is that with no parec/lame/mkchromecast
processes left behind on the system, the sink still exists.
So I try to use `mkchromecast -r` to clean up, and it bails on

because `pacmd list-sinks` is no longer a valid command in pipewire;
you're expected to use `pacmd list sinks` instead.
mkchromecast from git has been fixed back in 2021 in master
(b3855b7f7), but not tagged in upstream as a release yet, and it's not
in our unstable version, so will still be broken in trixie now that
we've all moved to pipewire :(
