Recently hit an issue on a binpkg-only system where I had no xwayland because it didn't get pulled in by anything, despite xorg-server[wayland] being set.
This does not sounds right. Even if it's RDEPEND, it will still be pulled in, just not before xorg-server. Care to elaborate?
To add to that. It's only temporary as the RDEPEND. Once we switch all downstream packages to depend on xwayland and not xorg-server[wayland] we will drop it.
Currently xwayland is in DEPEND only. Binpkgs completely ignore Depend (unless you specifically request portage to install Depend anyway, but an ebuild cannot rely on this), so a binpkg of xorg-server-1.20.11-r1[wayland] will not pull in xwayland. xwayland needs to be listed in Rdepend (and possibly in both?) in order for xorg-server[wayland] to function correctly.
