Until this commit, it was possible to build a desktop system without Qt.
No longer.
This commit effectively added most of Qt 5 as a new dependency of
'colord' (via 'sane-backends' and 'hplip'), which in turn means that
_any_ GuixSD system that uses %desktop-services now depends on Qt 5
libraries, including:
qtbase
qtconnectivity
qtdeclarative
qtlocation
qtmultimedia
qtsensors
qtserialport
qtsvg
qttools
qtwebchannel
qtwebsockets
qtx11extras
qtxmlpatterns
I would greatly prefer to preserve a straightforward way to build a
desktop system, e.g. a GNOME system, without building Qt 5.
Thoughts?
Mark
