- ncurses is not a required dependency -> make it a PACKAGECONFIG
PipeWire 1.6.6 (2026-05-26)
This is a bugfix release that is API and ABI compatible with the previous
1.6.x releases.
Highlights
- Fix a bug in the server code that could leave snap clients without
sound. (#5270)
- Relax LADSPA path loading again, absolute paths are only blocked in
unsafe cases.
- Fix a volume restore issue in filter-graph when using custom volume
controls.
- Small fixes and improvements.
PipeWire
- Fix the meta permission check on metadata.
- Make sure we don't accept too many fds.
- Fix potential race with buffer allocation and Suspend. (#3547)
SPA
- Relax LADSPA path loading. Absolute paths are allowed when loading
modules from a config file. They are now only blocked when loading
the pulse ladspa modules and filter-chains in nodes because those
can load ladspa plugins in other processes. (#5222)
- Fix a regression in the dither noise that was silent when no input
was available. (#5260)
- Fix volume initialization in filter-graph. (#5192)
Pulse-server
- Fix a bug in the server code that could leave snap clients without
sound. (#5270)
- Be more careful with the stream suspend messages and only send them
when the stream is monitoring. (#5273)
- Fix monitor mode in pavucontrol.
Tools
- Fix midifile SysEx writing in pw-cat and ensure the header is written
correctly on close.
- Make sure pw-cat does not try to convert Midi to UMP.
