Dear Maintainer,

I use KDE 6 without pipewire.

My .xsession-errors is full of kpipewire error logs, bloating every 5 seconds:

This is caused by qml6-module-org-kde-pipewire package.
Forcibly removing the package stops the logs.

Currently plasma-workspace and plasma-desktop currently 'Depends' on the package.
Would it be possible if they 'Recommends' it instead ?

Thanks in advance,
