https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361954 --- Comment #9 from Sebastian Kügler --- By the way, out of interest: why do you want libkscreen sans wayland? Kwin and plasma-workspace depend on KWayland as well, so you'll need Kwayland anyway to build Plasma, or are you also going to

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361954 --- Comment #4 from Luke-Jr --- I don't understand your final sentence. It doesn't look like the build system currently supports splitting the backends into different packages: it always wants to build them together. --
