Bug#1043424: plasma-desktop: Missing dependency on pipewire breaks screen sharing under Wayland

That makes KDE dependent on pipewire, regardless of what the default is. Default desktop environment is Gnome, that doesn't mean other environments shouldn't install their dependencies. -- Nazar

That's pretty good to read! pipewire: expected, not the default sound subsystem for bookworm. -- Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer https://perezmeyer.com.ar/

KDE is an option you can pick in the installer, which is what I did. It shouldn't require a user to know what other dependencies to install after with apt. Even if installing plasma-desktop later with apt it should have all the dependencies. I would argue that this bug should be retitled to only care about the xdg- desktop-portal-kde package. xdg-desktop-portal-kde was originally installed. pipewire wasn't. -- Nazar

I can agree that something in Plasma should depend/recommend xdg-desktop- portal-kde. But neither KDE+Wayland nor pipewire are defaults for Debian, so users wanting to use them are expected to do some work. Granted, it would be just awesome if no action would be required, but that is sadly not the case here. I am so downgrading this bug to normal. I would argue that this bug should be retitled to only care about the xdg- desktop-portal-kde package. Kinds regards, Lisandro. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Bug#1043424: plasma-desktop: Missing dependency on pipewire breaks screen sharing under Wayland
Package: plasma-desktop Version: 4:5.27.5-2 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: nazar@zhuk.online Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? I attempted screen sharing in Zoom on a fresh install of Debian 12 with KDE Plasma under Wayland. * What was the outcome of this action? KDE window allowed me to pick a screen or a window to share. It did not show previews. Upon selection the error was shown: KDE Portal Integration Failed to start screencasting Failed to create PipeWire context * What outcome did you expect instead? I expected the screen/window to be shared. I tested screen capture in https://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/gum_test.html to make sure this isn't a Zoom issue. Same outcome. After some searching and digging the issue appears to be that pipewire was not installed. This fixed the problem: sudo apt install pipewire systemctl --user start pipewire pipewire should be a dependency of plasma-desktop or one of it's dependencies so this works out of the box. Marking this as important since screen sharing is a must for a desktop OS in business. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-10-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages plasma-desktop depends on: ii accountsservice 22.08.8-6 ii breeze 4:5.27.5-2 ii kactivitymanagerd5.27.5-2 ii kde-cli-tools4:5.27.5.1-2 ii kded55.103.0-1 ii kio 5.103.0-1 ii kpackagetool55.103.0-1 ii layer-shell-qt 5.27.5-2 ii libaccounts-qt5-11.16-2 ii libc62.36-9+deb12u1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.74.6-2 ii libibus-1.0-51.5.27-5 ii libkaccounts24:22.12.3-1 ii libkf5activities55.103.0-1 ii libkf5activitiesstats1 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5authcore5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5baloo5 5.103.0-2 ii libkf5bookmarks5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5codecs55.103.0-1 ii libkf5completion55.103.0-1 ii libkf5configcore55.103.0-2 ii libkf5configgui5 5.103.0-2 ii libkf5configwidgets5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5coreaddons55.103.0-1 ii libkf5crash5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5dbusaddons55.103.0-1 ii libkf5globalaccel-bin5.103.0-1 ii libkf5globalaccel5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5guiaddons5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5i18n5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5iconthemes55.103.0-1 ii libkf5itemviews5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5jobwidgets55.103.0-1 ii libkf5kcmutils5 5.103.0-3 ii libkf5kcmutilscore5 5.103.0-3 ii libkf5kdelibs4support5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5kiocore5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5kiofilewidgets55.103.0-1 ii libkf5kiogui55.103.0-1 ii libkf5kiowidgets55.103.0-1 ii libkf5newstuffcore5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5notifications5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5notifyconfig5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5package5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5plasma55.103.0-1 ii libkf5plasmaquick5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5quickaddons5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5runner55.103.0-1 ii libkf5service-bin5.103.0-1 ii libkf5service5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5solid5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5sonnetcore55.103.0-1 ii libkf5sonnetui5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5widgetsaddons5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5windowsystem5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5xmlgui55.103.0-1 ii libkworkspace5-5 4:5.27.5-2 ii libnotificationmanager1 4:5.27.5-2 ii libpackagekitqt5-1 1.1.1-1 ii libphonon4qt5-4 4:4.11.1-4 ii libprocesscore9 4:5.27.5-2 ii libqt5concurrent5
