Comment 1 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2022-10-03 16:08:03 UTC
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 37-final by Fedora user bcotton using the blocker tracking app because:

 pipewire-plugin-libcamera is not a default package, but breaking upgrades for people who have it installed is bad.

Comment 2 František Zatloukal 2022-10-03 17:35:10 UTC
Discussed during the 2022-10-03 blocker review meeting: [1]

The decision to classify this bug as an AcceptedFreezeException was made:

"The decision to classify this bug as an "AcceptedFreezeException (Final)" was made as it is a noticeable issue that cannot be fixed with an update."

Comment 3 Wim Taymans 2022-10-04 07:25:49 UTC
The problem is that the libcamera package in fedora 37 is too old. Either:

1) upgrade libcamera to the f38 version.
2) try to patch up pipewire to work with the older one.

I would suggest to do 1) and then rebuild pipewire with the libcamera support again.

FEDORA-2022-47e949c637 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 37. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-47e949c637

Comment 5 Geraldo Simião 2022-10-06 02:48:42 UTC
