During tests, a problem to install Kooha (https://github.com/SeaDve/Kooha) in QV has occurred. BarryK provided a fix (viewtopic.php?p=117500#p117500)

The same problem occurs in EasyVoid but the fix not works.(EDIT : the files 0setup in EasyVoid and in QV are very different, the fix is only for QV)

I tried to install Kooha as a flatpak (https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.seadve.Kooha) with Flapi
No problem with installation but it do not work :

(kooha:2): Gdk-WARNING **: 17:18:30.439: The program 'kooha' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'.
(Details: serial 470 error_code 10 request_code 130 (MIT-SHM) minor_code 1)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

In QV, Kooha (installed by PKGget with the fix) do not work
The github page of Kooha leads to a screencast compatibily page (https://github.com/emersion/xdg-desktop ... patibility) where webrtc is named.
I installed "libdatachannel" (a WebRTC library) by PKGget. Kooha still not works but it was no longer blocking other programs (Before when i tried to create a text file with the error message, geany closed suddenly if kooha was not closed)

Same error if Kooha run as user kooha or as root:

ERROR kooha::window: Échec du démarrage de l’enregistrement

looks like it needs pipewire:

In Easyvoid, try to install kooha with xbps:

Yes! It's written in "Runtime Requirements" on Kooha page (https://github.com/SeaDve/Kooha)

In QV, I tried to install alsa-pipewire with PKGget. Failure with the same error than previously with kooha ("You declined to install this package...")
Maybe I have misunderstood the fix (viewtopic.php?p=117500#p117500) or it is incomplete

EDIT : Try of installation of wireplumber with xbpsget (after download of the wireplumber package)

# xbpsget wireplumber-0.5.2_1.x86_64.xbps
/usr/bin/xbpsget: ligne 148 : [: 34050732 : opérateur unaire attendu

Translated:
/usr/bin/xbpsget: line 148: [: 34050732: unary operator expected
grep: /root/.packages//root/.packages/Packages-void-current: No file or folder of that name

Version 240423 released, see blog:

Kooha and alsa-pipewire install ok, but Kooha still won't record.
