Bug#1043424: plasma-desktop: Missing dependency on pipewire breaks screen sharing under Wayland

I can agree that something in Plasma should depend/recommend xdg-desktop-
portal-kde.  But neither KDE+Wayland nor pipewire are defaults for Debian, so
users wanting to use them are expected to do some work. Granted, it would be
just awesome if no action would be required, but that is sadly not the case
here. I am so downgrading this bug to normal.

KDE is an option you can pick in the installer, which is what I did. It shouldn't require a user to know what other dependencies to install after with apt. Even if installing plasma-desktop later with apt it should have all the dependencies.

I would argue that this bug should be retitled to only care about the xdg-
desktop-portal-kde package.

xdg-desktop-portal-kde was originally installed. pipewire wasn't.
