Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-x11 mailing list
<x11 at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 232448: graphics/wayland: expose libepoll-shim flags to consumers
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232448



--- Description ---
www/firefox supports Wayland but the build currently fails because it assumes
epoll is also available. Adding FreeBSD quirks looks undesirable from upstream
POV and they may change or disappear in future. Why not treat libepoll-shim as
an implementation detail of libwayland*?

$ nm -A /usr/local/lib/libwayland*.so | fgrep -w epoll_create
/usr/local/lib/libwayland-client.so:		     U epoll_create
/usr/local/lib/libwayland-server.so:		     U epoll_create
