[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Pipewire and EasyEffects packages

[Andreas Doll]

Hi;

EasyEffects is now a broken package. When installed, it does not
correctly pass through from the processing sink to the output sink.
This morning I spent a few hours moving to Pipewire 1.0.3, as well as
building the most recent version of EasyEffects as found on Github.
Needless to say, this was a somewhat lengthy and complicated task.
However, I can confirm that these newer packages function properly
together. A short Github issue was raised here:
https://github.com/wwmm/easyeffects/issues/2952

On Arch-based distributions, Pipewire 1.0.3 is already installed or
available in repositories, and appears to be stable and functional. I
wonder if it might not be possible to thus expedite the addition of
later releases to Debian Stable/Main - along with Wireplumber and the
other associated packages for ALSA, Jack, Bluetooth, etcetera.

Best;

Andreas Doll
