Yes / No wireplumber and pipewire-media-session are in conflict

Hello,
Running into below question while trying to update.
Please advise on best way to proceed.
Trying to ask before proceeding so as not be break things...

Another related thing is that for awhile now I'm only able to update via garuda-update
The GUI based "Updates - Discover" doesn't seem to reflect the latest updates as before.

Appreciate the helpful answers on here in advance as always! =)

Garuda (2.6.4-2):
System install date:     2022-04-06
Last full system update: 2022-06-30
Is partially upgraded:   No
Relevant software:       NetworkManager
Windows dual boot:       Probably (Run as root to verify)
Snapshots:               Snapper
Failed units:            anbox-container-manager.service systemd-networkd-wait-online.service

The best way to update is always to run garuda-update, not update in Discover or other software apps.

The WirePlumber conflict came up earlier today, reviving this thread. I believe the community consensus at this point is "dealer's choice". :wink:

If you decide to give WirePlumber a shot and something breaks, it is easy to switch back.

Update:

An official stance has been established, to switch to WirePlumber as noted here: [Manual intervention required] Package conflict between pipewire-media-session & wireplumber - #57 by TNE

You should be able to run garuda-update as normal now and get through it without needing to resolve the conflict.
