I'm now working on the asymptote ebuild. asymptote has an optional gui - a separate python program xasy using pyqt5 and interacting with asy. From time immemorable, the USE flag controlling it was called X. Should I rename it to gui? Can a pyqt5 program (like xasy) run on wayland? I never used wayland, and have no idea (though I heard that qt programs can run on wayland). If xasy can run on wayland, then the USE flag name X is misleading, and should be replaced by gui. Opinions, please. Andrey
