Description Vova 2023-09-01 14:58:02 UTC
with media-video/pipewire masked, it's impossible to emerge kde-apps/spectacle without it.
 

```
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=media-video/pipewire-0.3:=" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- media-video/pipewire-9999::gentoo (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword)
- media-video/pipewire-0.3.79::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
- media-video/pipewire-0.3.78-r1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
- media-video/pipewire-0.3.77-r2::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
- media-video/pipewire-0.3.75-r3::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)

(dependency required by "kde-plasma/kpipewire-5.27.7::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-apps/spectacle-23.08.0::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-apps/spectacle" [argument])
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
```

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add media-video/pipewire to package.mask
2. emerge -va kde-apps/spectacle
Actual Results:  
emerge fails with the error above

Expected Results:  
spectacle builds without pipewire support

I took a liberty to set major priority because the best Gentoo feature is broken - ability to build system without new, unstable or controversial bits. pipewire breaks USB sound interface EVERY update - each time in a different manner.

Answer to $summary: yes. Also, it was mentioned in the news - pipewire is default for plasma profile.
