New comment by pullmoll on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/21862#issuecomment-628495220 Comment: I admit I have no experience with Wayland. Still, the description of `sddm` reads "QML based X11 display manager" which should be sufficient to tell people they need X11 installed in case they want to run local sessions with `sddm`. And if they don't want to install (also) the X11 dependency they should use a different DM, provided there is one which does not need X11 :) Since the `sddm` maintainer is @the-maldridge I'd say we leave it to him to decide how to deal with this issue.
