The closest forum post to this problem is here:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-8694092.html?sid=c54c29e4f9fdfd8f28f90f5130e874b9
Quick backstory: I have never used wayland, nor toggled any USE flags for it. It has always been "-wayland".
During the 17.1->23.0 profile transition, the system is required to be rebuilt with emerge -e world.
I attempted to shortcut this using binary packages as best as possible, ignoring some personal things I don't want touched (beyond the scope of this posting).
| Code: | | # emerge --getbinpkg -e world --exclude=grub --exclude=grub2 --exclude=sdlmame --exclude=vanilla-sources --exclude=xanim --exclude=radeon-ucode --exclude=gnome-icon-theme --exclude=sys-fs/udev |
And the following each failed to compile with an error about missing "gdk_wayland_display_get_type"
| Code: | xfce-base/garcon-4.18.2
x11-terms/xfce4-terminal-1.1.3
app-cdr/xfburn-0.7.0
xfce-base/xfce4-session-4.18.3-r1
xfce-base/xfce4-settings-4.18.4
xfce-base/xfce4-panel-4.18.6
xfce-base/thunar-4.18.10 |
So I continued via
| Code: | | #emerge --resume --skipfirst |
until I got everything else completed. After which:
1. revdep-rebuild/revdep-rebuild.sh does not resolve the problem.
2. re-emerging gtk+ from source does not solve the problem.
3. re-emerging libxfce4ui from source (i.e. without --getbinpkg) does solve the problem.
After which
| Code: | | # emerge -1 garcon xfce4-terminal xfburn xfce4-session xfce4-settings xfce4-panel thunar |
works fine.
My only conclusion is that the libxfce4ui binary package must have a hidden dependency on wayland even though it does not show as such when running
| Code: | | # emerge -pv1 libxfce4ui |
I can confirm on my system that
| Code: | | # emerge --getbinpkg -pv1 libxfce4ui |
does indeed bring in a binary package.
I ran into this problem on 2 gentoo boxes. |
