pipewire 0.3 is in unstable and built on all release architectures, so
please upload weston, krfb and xdg-desktop-portal-kde to unstable, either
with a build-dependency on libpipewire-0.3-dev or with their pipewire
support disabled.
(For xdg-desktop-portal-kde: a version of xdg-desktop-portal with
Pipewire support enabled is also already available in unstable on all
release architectures.)
I'm looking into also re-enabling Pipewire support in GNOME 3.36. I couldn't
get it to work in a test VM, but that might just be because the VM is using
QXL graphics, which until recently didn't work with GNOME screencasting
due to driver limitations (3.37.x has a workaround). If it works on real
hardware, I'll upload. If not, we'll have to wait for 3.37.x (which I have
already confirmed does work).
Thanks,
