Because the cost of building the scanner for the target is minimal, simplified build systems are always better than complicated ones with more options, and by not building it you forbid anyone building Wayland-related code on the target. The alternative of always building the target scanner likely doesn't impact the build time and by packaging it in a development package alongside the headers and data files it won't get installed in production images.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Ross</div></div>
