DetailsDescription:
Why don't we add GUI support, I don't understand why to disable this option explicitly. I understand that is not very useful but why not to let the people choose if they are going to use it or not. To do so we have simply to take out the statement disabling this option in the PKBUILD file. Additional info: * package version(s) * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: |
This task depends upon

Maybe you could add it as an optional dependence if you think is that bad to add wxgtk. By this I mean to install it with GUI support and add a line indicating that its usage will require the installation of the wxgtk package. I have seen this in many other packages. It is otherwise difficult to be able to incorporate it afterwards, unless you manage your own package.

Is the GUI needed only when explicitly request? I mean, are you sure openbabel can be built with wxgtk and used without?

Yes, you have to explicitly request it by using the OBGUI command.
