Description gentoo 2024-02-11 15:32:23 UTC 
Libreoffice-bin and Libreoffice depends on

- virtual/opengl which pulls in mesa[X]
- x11-libs/cairo[X]
- >=media-libs/libepoxy-1.3.1[X]
- gtk flag depends on 
  - x11-libs/gtk+:3[X]

Those running wayland only with no X are unable to install without adding the extra X flag to:

- media-libs/libepoxy
- x11-libs/cairo
- x11-libs/gtk+
- media-libs/libglvnd
- media-libs/mesa

There is a bug here: https://bugs.gentoo.org/890334 for virtual/opengl which looks like it is deprecated. 

And a write up here: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:ManDay/Deprecating_the_virtual_OpenGL_ebuild

I am able to install and run LibreOffice after modifying the ebuild and removing the X requirements. 

Can the requirements for X be put under a X use flag instead?




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install libreoffice-bin on wayland only system with -X globally
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.use" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
