After upgrading media-video/pipewire it prints something like

Code:
* Messages for package media-video/pipewire-1.2.5:
* Log file: /var/log/portage/build/media-video/pipewire-1.2.5:20241012-111347.log.gz

* Please restart KWin/Mutter after upgrading PipeWire.


How to do that?

With regards to KWin, you /can/ do

Code:
kwin_x11 --replace

to restart KWin without logging out, but I suspect it might not be enough for this purpose (I'm not that familiar with pipewire and the likes).

That does not work under Wayland.

The same applies for running the r command from Gnome.
