my world updates got blocked due to some conflict caused by pipewire I don't want another bloatware on my system, but there's no flag to disable it looks like FreeBSD was able to cope with that already - https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=270982 ... can Gentoo too, please?
No plans until such an option exists upstream.

WTH :-( I even haven't noticed this is pulled as dependency ... so, can we continue by dropping the hard dependency on the desktop-portal?

How should that work if not by wishful thinking?
don't know, by explaining to the relevant devels that really not everyone needs this flatpack stuff?
It is not about flatpak at all.
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #9) > It is not about flatpak at all. pardon my ignorance, but ... https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal A portal frontend service for Flatpak and other desktop containment frameworks. ^ how is that "not about flatpak at all"? from my understanding, this is just another abstraction layer that is completely useless when compiling from source and running apps natively without any sandboxing or could you tell me why would I need it if I don't use Flatpak (or similar, for that matter)?
It's needed for screensharing on Wayland in general. Anyway, we're not the people to convince. Feel free to send a patch upstream.
