Just a quick query, with the dnf update I've just done one of the packages that was updated was kde-settings-pulseaudio. When I issued rpm -ql kde-settings-pulseaudio that told me there were no files in that package, is that because that package does nothing more than pull in other packages to provide the functionality the descriptions says that package does?

Yes, it's a meta package that's part of kde-settings.  In the requires are:
(alsa-plugins-pulseaudio if pulseaudio)
(pipewire-alsa if pipewire-pulseaudio)
pulseaudio-daemon

So it will pull in the necessary packages for pulseaudio support.


No problems, I thought that was what it might be, thankyou. I was just checking because I was trying to determine what audio environment kde was using. When I was trying to get VLC to play bluray videos with the same quality as VLC under Windows, which I resolved by deleting the VLC config file, VLC provides multiple different audio settings, including Pipewire, Pulseaudio and Alsa. I thought Fedora was using Pipewire these days, but selecting Pipewire as the audio driver did not produce any audio, neither did Pulseaudio, only Alsa did, so I was trying to determine what settings kde had relative to audio. Audio in kde_settings doesn't give me any info at that level.
