Description Luke-Jr 2022-01-22 20:57:30 UTC 
As I understand it, sys-apps/xdg-desktop-portal is only used for Wayland support, and should therefore be an optional dependency.
Comment 1 Luke-Jr 2022-01-22 21:15:11 UTC 
Looking at the ebuild, it seems like there may be other deps that ought to be conditional too, but I didn't investigate them
Comment 2 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2022-01-23 10:52:37 UTC 
wayland support is non-optional in krfb.
Comment 3 Luke-Jr 2022-01-23 20:43:56 UTC 
That's not true. Deleting the xdg-desktop-portal and pipewire ebuild dependencies, krfb builds and works perfectly fine.
Comment 4 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-01-23 21:05:00 UTC 
They look not hard required but automagic (but we avoid it by depending on them unconditionally: https://invent.kde.org/network/krfb/-/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L82, I think.

Please submit a patch upstream to add CMake options.

Thanks for taking this bug where it belongs then.
