Description Fat-Zer 2011-09-24 23:28:52 UTC 
x11-apps/xdm depends on x11-libs/libXinerama but it compiles and runs great without it. So i think it should be removed fronm dependencies.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2019-03-03 00:52:41 UTC 
configure.ac doesn't offer a way to explicitly disable Xinerama support:

PKG_CHECK_EXISTS(xinerama, [
        AC_DEFINE([USE_XINERAMA], 1,
                [Define to 1 to use XINERAMA in greeter & chooser])
        PKG_CHECK_MODULES(XINERAMA, xinerama)
        CHOOSER_CFLAGS="$CHOOSER_CFLAGS $XINERAMA_CFLAGS"
        CHOOSER_LIBS="$CHOOSER_LIBS $XINERAMA_LIBS"
        GREETER_CFLAGS="$GREETER_CFLAGS $XINERAMA_CFLAGS"
        GREETER_LIBS="$GREETER_LIBS $XINERAMA_LIBS"
])

So evidently we chose to just always require it.
