Package: gstreamer1.0-pipewire
Version: 1.4.5-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When this package is installed and a virtual camera is used (through OBS's v4l2loopback module), Kamoso, cheese, and other webcam apps crash. I also tried with another virtual camera module with the same results.
Uninstalling the gstreamer1.0-pipewire package makes the virtual camera work just fine.
