Public bug reported: Dear Maintainer,
the qtwayland5-dev-tools package provides the qtwaylandscanner binary, which generates server side and client side headers and implementations for Wayland extension protocols. Specifically, the qtwaylandscanner tool takes XML definition files as input and generates C++ header and sources. These sources depend on headers that are shipped with qtwayland-opensource-src. All headers for the Wayland server side (AKA compositor) are provided with the libqt5waylandcompositor5-dev package, yet the client side headers are not provided and makes it impossible to generate both Wayland client and server implementations with qtwaylandscanner. As of the synchronized state of the packaging debian/rules from the Debian project, the client side headers are removed. Debian already added them as a separate libqt5waylandclient5-dev package in the following commit: https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde- team/qt/qtwayland/compare/6ad6c9ec75fb652116ed95252d5cb82bf27f0430...977faf4c32503a3fb2ce52cfdf481941f40b4475 Further information can be found in: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=893387. I would like to ask the Debian packaging patch to be cherry-picked to make qtwaylandscanner useful.
