6+ ### Pipewire session manager switch
7+
8+ Void has now dropped the long-deprecated ` pipewire-media-session ` session manager
9+ from its ` pipewire ` package, bringing it inline with the upstream default
10+ configuration. If you are currently using ` pipewire ` , you must migrate to
11+ ` wireplumber ` or ` pipewire ` will cease to function properly. Refer to
12+ [ Void documentation] ( https://docs.voidlinux.org/config/media/pipewire.html#session-management )
13+ if you need guidance when making this change.
14+
15+ ### Pipewire and PulseAudio system service removal
16+
17+ The oft-confusing services for ` pipewire ` , ` pipewire-pulse ` ,
18+ ` wireplumber ` , and ` pulseaudio ` have been removed from the ` pipewire ` ,
19+ ` wireplumber ` , and ` pulseaudio ` packages because they were experimental and
20+ should not have been used for almost all use-cases.
21+
22+ If you are currently using those services and still wish to do so, replacements
23+ for the ` pipewire ` and ` pulseaudio ` services can be found in
24+ ` /usr/share/examples/$pkgname/sv/ ` . Otherwise, it is recommended to migrate to
25+ another method of launching ` pipewire ` . Refer to
26+ [ Void documentation] ( https://docs.voidlinux.org/config/media/pipewire.html )
27+ if you need guidance.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
