I ran into the very same problems. I would have preferred if such new
dependencies were optional or if someone would explain what we will miss
if we disable them. For colord, trying to build the latest required
version from git just pulls in more dependencies that you also have to
build from git (as Bill mentioned).

It's kind of frustrating, even if weston is meant to be a playground and
thus new dependencies have to be expected.

http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html should be updated I guess?
