PPA removal leaves packages which break jackd #27
Comments
It turns out that at least one extra package is left over after purging the PPA. Removing it with I think the readme should mention that some of these packages can cause these kinds of conflicts. In my case, I couldn't fully remove pulseaudio without breaking the desktop, so I had to spend hours debugging this. I don't know whether some other package will cause a conflict in the future. A note about these in the uninstall section would have saved me so much time. edit - these are the pipewire packages from the install which I was able to uninstall without breaking the desktop:

What from the 0.3.24 there are lots of improvement in 0.3.32 thats why I'm asking. May be its fixed in 0.3.32. |
I can do that but not for a few days, since I now need to catch up on work. Regardless, I don't think those packages should remain after the uninstall. |
@daveriedstra you can always uninstall it manually, Now may be from 21.10 pipewire will come preinstalled without pulseaudio. So if I put this instruction on uninstall section may be it will not generalise instruction for all ? Moreover this PPA is created to install pulseaudio and pipewire installed side by side. In that case what I can do, I can put this in troubleshotting page. But before putting I want to hear #27 (comment) and this will need your help. take your time. and please report back. |
Ok, I just installed the PPA again to see if things have changed (with pipewire 0.3.35-1~ubuntu21.04), it seems that they haven't. Stopping pipewire with
That would be great, thanks! |
I think some functionality still remained unimplemented. Or hapenning something beyond of my understanding. Did not you get any help from this : https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/wikis/Limitations-in-0.3 ? I think you should create a bug report at : https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/new? |
What I think is happening is the pipewire jack libraries are installed with (I'm also hesitant to file an issue upstream because there's a lot of noise there, so I want to make sure it's actually a bug) |
Got it... thanks for the hints. see : https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/wikis/Config-JACK#installation And this whole project is derived from the official debian package. and have this above config in pipewire-debian/pipewire/debian/rules Line 41 in 25c7111
on above gitlab wiki they are mentioning the issue is presents from 0.3.21+ maybe since then they have not update that section. A quick fix for you everything should works just delete the file from Edit - I'll be updating the status until final verdict. One thing I should mention you that the pipewire is built as a replacement of jack, right ? so at a instance either of

Describe the bug
I tried out pipewire from this PPA, but decided to go back to my old setup of PulseAudio + jackd. After working through the install instructions in reverse (masking the pipewire services, purging this repo with
ppa-purge
, and re-enabling the pulseaudio systemd services), jackd no longer works. You can see all the gory details on the issue I filed at the jackd repo: jackaudio/jack2#782. I think pipewire-debian broke some shared library that jackd needs.To Reproduce
Expected behavior
Removing pipewire-debian should leave system in same state as before installation
