>Environment:
NetBSD current, Sept 24, 2026, amd64
>Description:
The devel/appstream upstream automatically detects wayland. The devel/appstream pkgsrc Makefile buildlinks in wayland conditioned only on whether the platform supports wayland. If appstream is built with wayland support, a reference to a wayland-client pkg-config file is made, which trips up the build of graphics/gimp if wayland is generally disabled with PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS.

Originally reported by John D. Baker on pkgsrc-users@ in https://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2026/09/16/msg043478.html.
>How-To-Repeat:
PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+= -wayland
build graphics/gimp
>Fix:

A pull-up to 2026Q3 is requested.
