Description Barry Jackson 2022-04-13 16:15:50 CEST

Description of problem:
After recent updates to Mga9 easyeffects crashes on startup while looking for client-rt.conf or client.conf.

These are provided by the pipewire-alsa rpm.

Trying to install pipewire-alsa in a fully up-to-date cauldron hits this problem.

See attached urpmi output.

Comment 3 Barry Jackson 2022-04-13 16:22:59 CEST

easyeffects does not currently have any require on pipewire-alsa and has worked previously in an earlier cauldron VM so I can only guess that something changed in pipewire packaging.
I notice from the urpmi output above that pipewire appears to not have been built for tainted in recent rels. which is causing some confusion.

Comment 4 Barry Jackson 2022-04-13 17:41:06 CEST

Copying the files: client.conf and client-rt.conf manually from the pipewire-alsa package into ~/.config/pipewire does allow easyeffects to start without crashing.
Maybe these should be in the main pipewire package?

This is fixed in pipewire-0.3.61-3.mga9.
