MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge pipewire-common-git [2] into pipewire-git [3]:
pipewire-common-git is a later created deliberate duplicate of pipewire-git, with a misleading name.
See https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pipewire-common-git?O=40#comment-785408 It's 2023 and pipewire-git is still missing pipewire gstreamer plugins. Many have had tried to ask sl1pkn07, who is pipewire-git's maintainer, to include pipewire gstreamer plugins multiple times, but all have been rejected or ignored by sl1pkn07. Hence the creation of pipewire-common-git. On 9/4/23 18:22, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote: pipewire-common-git aligns with extra/pipewire, therefore the choosing of "common".
@eh5, please submit your packaging ideas and suggestions on the existing package's page instead of creating unnecessary duplicates.
@MarsSeed please do research and submit your suggestions to package's page first instead of creating a merge request, which risks the package being taking down if its maintainer didn't appeals (for any reason), without understanding the full picture.
