--- Comment #8 from Sebastian Kügler <se...@kde.org> ---
Thanks for educating me about whole point of my work and my aim of
participating in KDE. :-D

I don't know how "KDE's sponsored purpose as a showcase for Qt" is to be
understood or where you're coming from with this, but let's concentrate on
technical rather than philosophical or academical topics.

I'm speaking as maintainer (so bug-wrangler and developer). These roles cannot
be split, or at least we don't have people who just triage bugs. In practice,
it's the developers having to shoulder this work as well as development. (Your
help is welcome here.)

In the end it all boils down to a resources available versus complexity. A
higher degree of complexity means more possible cases to investigate, which in
turn means more resources needed to deal with this complexity. We've made a
conscious decision to not support building libkscreen without Wayland support
for these reasons.

That said, from a cursory glance, your patch looks like the way I'd do it as
well. I just don't want it upstream, and I won't spend any effort supporting
your patched version of libkscreen. Please clearly mark your patched version as
such to avoid confusion.
