I'll start by asking a different question: do you intend to build any kde5 applications (or plasma) ? If you do, I think you will find that kwayland is required. But if you don't want to use wayland, I'm fairly sure that you can pass --disable-wayland-backend. Looking at the configure script, you might not even need to do that. ĸen -- Truth, in front of her huge walk-in wardrobe, selected black leather boots with stiletto heels for such a barefaced truth. - Unseen Academicals -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
