Well, my understanding was that pipewire-media-session was gone for good 
from the archive and that wireplumber was replacing it (and force 
removing the package). In that condition, having some code to handle the 
pipewire-session-manager.service symlinks sounded the think to do.

But, now I see that pipewire-media-session is being reintroduced 
(#997001) meaning that we'll have two ways to start pipewire in the archive?
