> So please do not require any wayland dependencies for building LO


LO doesn't require any such thing! As already explained in the very Gentoo bug
you referenced, the Gentoo maintainer made this judgment call: "I am not going
to introduce an IUSE on LO that is invalid with !gtk[34] just to solve that."

This is illogical and nonsensical and not how computers work. Building LO with
*support* for users on Xorg and users on wayland means depending on a
gtk+[X,wayland].

It is not reasonable to demand upstream projects simply give the middle finger
to all wayland users. People installing upstream prebuilt binaries have always
needed to install library dependencies they don't strictly need for a
minimalist config.

...

Please stop harassing upstream projects because of your quarrel with a Gentoo
Developer choosing to not implement a USE flag. Thanks.
