Subject: Why does libdrm-intel needs libpciaccess?
Date: Wed, 03 Aug 2011 12:31:44 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E3977F0.9090102@gmail.com> (raw)

Here is a simple question I couldn't find an answer for: why does
libdrm-intel needs libpciaccess to be build? It is the only drm driver
requiering it.

>From what I understand, and correct me if I'm wrong, but libpciaccess is
related to X. And drm should be able to live without X. So why would
libdrm-intel rely on libpciaccess/X to be build? I'm sure we could do
without it, since all other drivers do.

As things are right now, would that imply using a X lib to build
libdrm-intel and then use it with Wayland for instance? Isn't Wayland
supposed to be able to run completly without X?

Cheers,
