Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-desktop (Team) <desktop@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 255093: audio/pulseaudio: optionalize X11 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D255093 --- Description --- Make audio/pulseaudio dependency on X11 optional. Pulseaudio is needed to build www/firefox pulse-rust backend, which can be = used with pipewire-pulse instead of pulseaudio. I run locally-patched ports tree that ensures that I am not building *any* X11-related dependencies (e.g. even libGL and libx{11,xcb}), and building X= 11 just for the build time dependency breaks my X11-less setup. This might also be desirable for headless environments, e.g. servers using pulseaudio for some reason. I wouldn't mind if this will never be merged. Consolekit has a hard dependency on X11 by using checks in configure files = and including and then using Xlib.h, so don't depend on this lib if X11 is off. No functional change for the default build.
