OpenMW, the only depender of mygui in ArchLinux does not require ogre (anymore).

So maybe mygui could be built without depending on ogre, as described here:

This task depends upon

Also, the package description would need to be changed to something like 'GUI library for 3D applications.'

I think last time I tried that it would then fail if the system didn't have ogre installed anymore. Can I just build the ogre plugin optionally and it will continue working fine if people use the rest of it without ogre?

I do not quite understand what you are saying, but my proposal is to drop Ogre (since openMW, the only package depending on mygui, does not need Ogre) like this:

Another, more complicated, solution would be to split the package up into engine and platform packages, where openmw would depend only on myguiengine.
