unset pipewire dependency in cheese

[David Lee]

After installing Cheese via apt and trying to run it, cheese complains of a missing dependency and segfaults:

leecy@Mia:~/projects$ cheese
can't load /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/spa/support/libspa-support.so: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/spa/support/libspa-support.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Upon further inspection this is a library provided by pipewire, which is not referenced by cheese's dependencies.

Manually installing pipewire using

sudo apt install pipewire

solves the issue.

could you also include the output of those commands

$ dpkg -l | grep cheese
$ which cheese
$ ldd /usr/bin/cheese

did you install some gstreamer pipewire plugins or something?
