Created attachment 722404 [details] ebuild with the change QtWebengine is an optional dependency as of this merge: https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/pull/3471 Only required change is adding the USE flag since they didn't add an explicit compile option. Ebuild attached.
This is good news! Though we will need to wait for 3.2.x stable backport or new major release, as this is currently only in master (you can see in src/CMakeLists.txt we still have WebEngineWidgets WebEngine REQUIRED) It is sad the configure option WITH_WEBENGINE from initial patch was not kept, though with some cmake hacks we may be able to still force a configure option - setting Qt5WebEngine_FOUND to false, or worst case by patching it

I've attached my personal backport patch that works for 3.2.x; it uses the WITH_WEBENGINE option as well.

OK let's get this in :) Final patch is not too large, and cmake allows to override cleanly that Qt5WebEngine_FOUND variable, like in: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/kde-apps/marble/marble-21.04.2.ebuild#n87 I spotted some enhancements to the build system and ebuild too, once done -r1 should have webengine optional
