Created attachment 230500 [details] v1 (apply via "git am") "wayland" the package (upstream often calls it "libwayland") mainly provides C implementation for client (libwayland-client.so) and server (libwayland-server.so) side as well as glue generator (wayland-scanner) for extensions. With official FreeBSD support users can now report bugs directly to upstream. So, populate pkg-descr via upstream README.md and COMMENT via GitLab project one-line summary. https://wayland-book.com/libwayland.html https://wayland.freedesktop.org/docs/html/apb.html Also, the intro line in pkg-descr is dated/contentious. GNOME/Wayland is not supported at all (bug 258042) and KDE/Wayland is unstable (fixed but broke again), so after ~3 years wlroots (sway, hikari, wayfire, cage, river, labwc, kwinft) remains the best supported on FreeBSD.
For an example how new users can get confused see https://gist.github.com/probonopd/9feb7c20257af5dd915e3a9f2d1f2277#gistcomment-4031973
