On both my current systems I can uninstall pipewire but I only have tumbleweed and jump installed at the moment. If Leap is different it probably means there is a requires pipewire where there should be a requires libpipewire or a recommends pipewire instead.
That is the case Simon,
On 15.2 it is spinning away with no way to stop it or uninstall it without uninstalling firefox as well.
It being a recommends would be fine. On 15.2 I disable recommends with no-recommends in the config file, but pipewire was still installed and started on 15.2.
Bann/taboo it.
Not the best idea, if something such as firefox does currently require it you might block its updates.
It should only affect pipewire, not firefox. If it is a dependency, of course it will complain, perhaps "can not install firefox", and user has to ignore the conflict manually. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
