USE="curl luajit ncurses server" emerge =games-action/minetest-5.0.1-r2 Above fails due to missing irrTypes.h, which is part of dev-games/irrlicht. This dependency already exists for USE="client" and should be pulled in case of USE="server" too. Reproducible: Always
Hmm, it seems strange for this to be a dependency requirement for a non-client build. I suspect this header inclusion is unintentional in the upstream code, so I'll investigate and see whether an upstream patch for this is appropriate.
After investigating, I discovered the irrTypes.h header file is used in the Minetest code for its fixed-width data types. Unfortunately, this has created a dependency on Irrlicht that should in theory not be necessary for server-only builds. The proper solution is to use standard C++ data types like uint32_t (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/integer) for this situation. However, although the task of replacing the irrTypes.h data types with standard C++ data types is technically simple, the abundant use of them throughout the Minetest code base has made the task tedious enough that I've given up on it. Instead, I've pushed a new ebuild revision to simply add Irrlicht as a build dependency for both client and server builds.
