WTF! Why? Is this a real dependency that the code has to be there, even if we're not using Wayland, or is this simply "yes another stupid packaging issue"?
It is a real dependency.. code is using the API provided by those libraries.. of course it is not active unless you are running wayland.
Eh? There's something that doesn't seem right in that explanation. If Wayland isn't there to make use of the APIs, *and* the APIs are encapsulated in these libraries, then these libraries should be removable if Wayland isn't around to make use of them. Think about the call tree. The only reason that these libraries would be required is if they were required by something else, that is they contained code that was called by a non-wayland layer. In which case three is something very strange about the call tree. I've read David's note about dynamic and static linking, but I don't see that it is really an answer. If there is nothing in the call tree then its matter of how things are packaged. -- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
