Description James Le Cuirot gentoo-dev

The ebuild removes /usr/bin/wxrc so that it does not collide with eselect-wxwidgets but only when USE=X. The upstream logic of whether to install wxrc or not changed in 3.1. Previously it was based on the --enable-xrc option, which we've never specified at all, but it is disabled by --disable-gui. That option is still there, but now the logic is based on --with-expat instead, which we pass unconditionally. This seems odd, and I have no idea why it changed, but that's how it is.

The addition of the wayland USE flag should also be considered here. Perhaps we should just rm -f wxrc. Basing --disable-gui solely on the X flag also seems wrong.

thanks for the analysis, I've removed the conditionals to get

~/.../repo/x11-libs/wxGTK$ tar -xOf /var/cache/binpkgs/x11-libs/wxGTK/wxGTK-3.2.2.1-r2-1.gpkg.tar  wxGTK-3.2.2.1-r2-1/image.tar.bz2 | bzip2 -d - | tar -tf - | grep 'bin.*xrc'
image/usr/bin/wxrc-3.2-gtk3
image/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/wxrc-3.2-gtk3.debug

with USE=-X.  I'll push that now.

apologies for the delay.

wrt USE=X really being GUI, the wayland support upstream doesn't really exist without X AFAICT, so I'm not sure what we ought to be doing about that.
