Compiling xfdesktop-4.19.1[-X] fails while linking. The error is: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: xfdesktop-xfdesktop-icon-view-manager.o: undefined reference to symbol 'XInternAtom' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line Using mold: mold: error: undefined symbol: XInternAtom >>> referenced by xfdesktop-icon-view-manager.c >>> xfdesktop-xfdesktop-icon-view-manager.o:(xfdesktop_icon_view_manager_rootwin_event_filter) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: # emerge xfdesktop Actual Results: Linker throws an error. Expected Results: Survive linking. The system has libX11 installed, but no X server. xfdesktop is supposed to kinda, somewhat work with wayland.

Created attachment 872730 [details] Build log
Thanks for reporting this upstream ^^. They provided a fix: https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/-/commit/77b2d1b071436bc538cc44f92e2a2b157b2cc4d0
I tested the upstream patch on the 4.19.1 ebuild. The package builds with it, and it actually works (wallpaper, menus, config app) in my pure wayland setup, using labwc. \o/
