Hallo,
i want to replace 'pipewire' with 'pipewire-git' by using yay -Qs, printf (to add the '-git' suffix) and xarg. The corresponding pipewire packages dependencies do not always point to the git version so i have to explicitly specify every package. I've created the one-liner below but it fails due to an additional 'EOF' argument that gets passed to the provider selection for libcamera-git. I've tried several things on xargs (-0 -d' ', -E '') but nothing helps. Where is this 'EOF' coming from and how can i remove it?
Edit: Even if this problem is solved it fails due to not finding 'pipewire-jack-dropin-git'. That's correct as there is no git package for that. How can i ignore not existing packages?
$ yay -Qsq pipewire
lib32-pipewire
lib32-pipewire-jack
pipewire
pipewire-alsa
pipewire-jack
pipewire-jack-dropin
pipewire-media-session
pipewire-pulse
$ printf '%s-git ' $(yay -Qsq pipewire) | xargs echo
lib32-pipewire-git lib32-pipewire-jack-git pipewire-git pipewire-alsa-git pipewire-jack-git pipewire-jack-dropin-git pipewire-media-session-git pipewire-pulse-git
$ printf '%s-git ' $(yay -Qsq pipewire) | xargs yay --needed -S

See
man -P 'less -p open-tty' xargs
or forget the pipe+xargs and use another level of command substitution to pass the printf output directly to yay as arguments.

Thanks. I guess that will do it (next time). I cannot confirm it at the moment as i have installed it manually in the meantime.
