If you're interested in using the latest version of wf-recorder before Debian makes it available (usually takes a long time), you have to build it from sources as instructed on Github. It was released a few weeks ago.

However instructions are not fully correct for Raspberry Pis, regarding required dependencies.
Here's what it takes to build and install beyond what's already instructedyou will also need to install (I did this on a fresh Trixie Desktop install)Now you should be able to build and install without warnings or missing features.Test withInstallBeen using it for the last few days. No issues...
