You have repeated many times that removing pulseaudio would remove

Suggested workarounds have been
'rpm -e --nodeps pulseaudio' followed by 'dnf install pipewire'
This is never a good idea and should never be needed. If it isn't
working with dnf, then you need to figure out why instead of likely
breaking things.
Hi Samuel,
Yes, it isn't a good idea, John did mention that it might be
problematic, but I was trying it to see if I could replace pulseaudio
with pipewire.
Given that pulseaudio has been deprecated in F37, why are those
packages not removed as part of the upgrade and replaced with
pipewire equivalents? Although looking at the \*pulseaudio\* packages
that are installed the pulseaudio-module-bluetooth package isn't
installed and neither is pulseaudio, but by the same token the
pipewire bluetooth package that also hooks into Gnome-shell, is also
not installed, so I'm now wondering whether or not I need to install
the pipewire package to use the water lamp bluetooth speakers I have
after I pair them.
This F37 system that has been upgraded from at least F36 doesn't have
pulseaudio installed. There is no pipewire bluetooth package because
bluetooth is included and doesn't need a separate package.
That's interesting, when I was trying to resolve the audio issue before
I rebuilt Fedora, when you said pulseaudio had been deprecated I tried
to replace pulseaudio with pipewire and doing that I got a conflict
between a pipewire bluetooth package (whose exact name I've forgotten)
and pulseaudio-module-bluetooth, but the pipewire package isn't visible
in my current system, so the only thing I can think of is that pipewire
package was in the rpmfusion-tainted repository that was active at that
time. The rpmfusion repository was active because of a web page I was
pointed at the try to resolve the audio suggested installing that
repository and then doing a dnf group update of both the multimedia and
the sound-and-video groups, which is where the update of the multimedia
group caused the conflict between the pulsaudio and pipewire bluetooth
packages, and an uninstall of pulseaudio-module-bluetooth to resolve the
conflict couldn't be done because it wanted to uninstall Gnome-shell
(this was being done under KDE which I thought was irrelevant).
regards,
Steve
