I used to for quite some time. The reason for me to start with wayland 
(and mesa support for it) was gtk4 (3.91.*), which refused to build 
without at some point. Other packages using wayland now (gtk3, 
webkitgtk, qt5, vlc) "seemed to have no issues without it" before.

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.


No, I'm using xfce as desktop, with some gtk2, gtk3 and qt5 apps mixed in. 
My current system uses mesa 12 and latest gtk2, gtk3 and qt5 with no 
problems so far. But you never know.

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.

[blfs-dev] wayland-protocols and mesa

[Tim Tassonis]

Hi all

I'm currently building blfs and have hit mesa. Under the recommended 
dependencies, I found  wayland-protocols, which in turn depends on wayland.


As I'm currently not planning to switch to wayland in the near future, I 
wondered if skipping wayland-protocols is fine under my circumstances. 
The page mentions that  GTK+-3.22.28 recommends wayland-protocols, 
however, I seem to have no issues on my old box without it.


Does anybody else use mesa without wayland?
