Hi, I'm trying to package a GTK4 terminal, and lacking gtk4 support here is a bit detrimental to that. I'm wondering how hard it'd be to enable support for this in the ebuild.
Turns out the specific version in the repos right now doesn't want to enable gtk4, but vte-0.69.x does. Consider this a version bump request, mask it as necessary.
This would probably be a new slot, and I don't think the current stable versions are ready for it or even have it. So this is really about waiting for vte-0.70 to come out too in September (unless we get to packaging release candidates this time around)
Also I think the new slot should go into gui-libs/ instead, like we did with gtksourceview or gtk itself, so we get away from x11 category over time without huge churn on the pkgmove of previous slots
