Description Kim Nilsson 2021-01-28 09:25:42 UTC 
Starting from version 5.0.0, Pulseeffects has completely replaced pulseaudio support with pipewire.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update media-sound/pulseeffects to 5.0.0
2. Try starting
Actual Results:  
pulseeffects does not start without pipewire configured

Expected Results:  
>=media-sound/pulseeffects-5.0.0 should depend on pipewire instead of pulseaudio

Maintainer thinks that elog postinst warning about it is enough?

Comment 2 Kim Nilsson 2021-01-28 11:14:57 UTC 
Saw the updated RDEPEND and now the warning. It is regrettable that the project completely dropped Pulseaudio support, but I suppose that Gentoo's handling is acceptable. Recommend closing as invalid

After checking the Pulseefects website, I have to agree, they intend to only support pipewire.  At least they say they will support the Pulseeffect 4 series for a while.
