IIRC, usually emacs=no graphical emacs-x=emacs X11 and emacs-pgtk is for wayland. Not sure who does that though. What about emacs-pgtk and emacs-lucid, to force the user to make an informed choice? I’m sure we have a lot of users on X still, personnally I’m pretty hyped for Wayback to try some tiling window managers again :P. Good day, Noé
