Ticket #32057, comment 5
initial v1 1 The resolution pretty much remains the same as the earlier posts. gnome-desktop has hard dependencies on X11 functionality and requires gtk3 built with the +x11 variant (needs the x11 gdk backend) to build. This means that it will not build with gtk3 +quartz as currently implemented. Somehow the dummy +quartz variant that was added 3 years ago to give an error about this i ddurhas gone away and only comments in the port remain to explain this situation.1 The resolution pretty much remains the same as the earlier posts. gnome-desktop has hard dependencies on X11 functionality and requires gtk3 built with the +x11 variant (needs the x11 gdk backend) to build.

In practice, only a few GNOME packages have taken advantage of this capability to date and gnome-desktop is not one of them. The inclusion of additional gdk backends such as broadway, wayland and mir may change that in the future.
