Re: Following Pipewire developments
Hello everybody out there! One last question before deciding to use Fedora, what about use this repository: https://pipewire-debian.github.io/pipewire-debian/ Well, it seems a bit making some kind of a Frankendebian, but it seems to be less susceptible to broke anything else in the system. What do you think about it? Best regards. -- Yoann LE BARS https://le-bars.net/yoann/ Diaspora* : yleb...@framasphere.org

No, I have not tested it yet. I thought I would rather get some information first. You could pull in the package for Bookworm or Sid and try installing that. "apt pipewire."

You could also try pulling it in from the git repo and installing that. https://pipewire.org To be consistent with Linux standards, I would set --prefix=/usr/local It appears Ardour and Musescore are available as Debian packages, although neither is the most recent version. That suggests that one or both will build easily on Debian. I would consider building them from source. Then you can bypass the flatpack entirely. Well, concerning Ardour, it is not that easy to compile. Best regards. -- Yoann LE BARS https://le-bars.net/yoann/ Diaspora* : yleb...@framasphere.org

Hello, everybody out there! I am running Debian stable (Bullseye). Now, it turns out I need to use some new version of Musescore and Ardour–because of few bugs and several functionalities I need. As these applications are available as flatpaks, I can easily use them. The trouble is, to be able to use flatpaks with Jack, I have to use Pipewire. As Pipewire is quite recent, I probably would rather use some recent version of Pipewire. As far as I know, Pipewire is not available on Backports: https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=pipewire&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all Is there a way to use some recent version of Pipewire with Debian stable?
