New comment by maciozo on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/44422#issuecomment-1659058433

Comment:
It would have been nice to have some community input on the matter. While some discussion may have happened on IRC, it's apparent that not all of us have the time to spend on there. I was thinking that perhaps some sort of e-mailed newsletter whenever breaking changes like this occur, but @lemmi's suggestion of including it as an install message would probably be easier to manage. That plus some time for an RFC, especially for such a contraversial change.

I seem to recall something like this happening with a PipeWire package recently (`pipewire-media-session`, or something like that?), that was replaced with something else, but still managed to break my audio stack.
