You are aware that xorg has been modulariszed around 20 years ago ~10+ years ago for freebsd
because as usual we were late to the battle, since that libx11 does not bring in
the whole xorg anymore?
Now libx11 only depends on libxcb, libXdmcp libXau and xorgproto
libbX11-1.8.7,1 5.57MiB
libxcb-1.15_1 4.94MiB
libXdmcp-1.1.3 63.1KiB
libXau-1.0.9 37.7KiB
xorgproto-2023.2 1.38MiB
Note that if someone looks closedly enough he can probably shave off xorgproto
as a dependency.
if you look at the build dependency, you will add xtrans and xorg-macros and
xcb-proto and python39 the only big thing being python3.9 which you probably
have anyway for other reasons.
while the x11 option did make sense 20 years ago, it does not really make sense
in 2023 except if it brings in a giant gui toolkit.
