[Bug 1977564] Re: wireplumber conflicts with pipewire-media-session & needs fixing

[Jeremy Bicha]

Dylan, thank you very much for your patch. I'm going to go ahead and
upload pipewire-media-session and wireplumber to Ubuntu 22.10 now.
Please see the attached patch also to apply on top of your patch.

After this issue is fixed in Debian, I need to backport the fix to
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS since some people will attempt to switch to and away
from pipewire there.

Bug description:
  This issue was reported on IRC and we should probably fix it before
  installing wireplumber by default so I'm setting the block-proposed
  tag.

  wireplumber is apparently too forceful in how it enables PipeWire.
  Both Arch Linux and Debian had to

  https://archlinux.org/news/undone-replacement-of-pipewire-media-
  session-with-wireplumber/

  Is it necessary for wireplumber to conflict with pipewire-media-
  session?

  Should we add Replaces?

  What files does pipewire-media-session need to clean up when it is
  removed?

  See https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-remote-
  desktop/-/commit/52799cfd for an example of how files that aren't
  technically conffiles can be removed.
