Subject: [gentoo-dev] USE flag: gui or X?
Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2025 13:15:46 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4102d3da-a1d6-04bd-2a37-d30209e536c1@gentoo.org> (raw)

Hello *,

I have a trivial question. I'm now working on the asymptote ebuild. 
asymptote has an optional gui - a separate python program xasy using pyqt5 
and interacting with asy. From time immemorable, the USE flag controlling 
it was called X. Should I rename it to gui?

Can a pyqt5 program (like xasy) run on wayland? I never used wayland, and 
have no idea (though I heard that qt programs can run on wayland). If xasy 
can run on wayland, then the USE flag name X is misleading, and should be 
replaced by gui.

Opinions, please.

Andrey
