Dropped vulkan, ffmpeg, hsphfpd SPA plugins in this "common" package base because they are disabled by default in upstream, you can still find them in https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pipewire-full-git.
Vulkan, ffmpeg SPA plugins are actually not used by pipewire's default media session, you won't have any lose on it except less dependency.
Consider that pipewire's native HSP/HFP support is now good enough compared to hsphfpd, I also dropped hsphfpd varient of bluez plugin.

If someone needs any of these packages pre-built, chaotic-aur builds them hourly...

@FabioLolix This one has gstreamer support (provides
gst-plugin-pipewire
) and hsphfpd support enabled.(All below is edit message for anyone who interests.)
Be aware that https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gst-plugin-pipewire-git/ depend by pipewire-git is not part of pipewire-git package base.
Many people request[1-2] the maintainer(https://aur.archlinux.org/account/sl1pkn07) of pipewire-git to enable gstreamer support but seems he refuse to do that. Despite gstreamer support is enabled by default in upstream (also in Arch repo) and gstreamer plugin is a dynamic loadable library which is capable to be split into separate package.
And some request to orphan or delete pipewire-git but all has been rejected by TU[3].
There was a VCS package solved gstreamer problem named
pipewire-nightly
, but a TU decides to delete it for the reason that the suffix "-nightly" in package name imply that it has to be a snapshot package[4].Those are reasons why I create this package base.
