There's a closed pull request on the void-packages repository

[RFC] pipewire: update, add virtual session manager to pull in wireplumber without build cycle
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/41868

Description:
> **Note:** This is not really intended as an update to 0.3.64; instead, if there is enough support for this proposal, I think https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/41846 should be merged with an `INSTALL.msg` warning people that pipewire-media-session will be dropped in the next release and that they should make sure they have a working wireplumber configuration before then.

pipewire will not work without a session manager; the previously included pipewire-media-session has long been deprecated and is now abandoned [1]. Making pipewire depend on wireplumber would create a cycle, so the cycle is broken with a rename and a new metapackage:

1. Rename pipewire -> pipewire-utils to clear the pipewire name
2. New pipewire meta depends on pipewire-utils and wireplumber

The rename is a violation of policy but allows existing pipewire users to see the new meta as an update that will pull in an updated real pipewire alongside the now-required wireplumber.

Continuing the work of https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/38521.
