DetailsDescription: just observed a 200MB+ package (intel-oneapi-compiler-shared-runtime) to be installed which is a dep. of blender, even when like in my case there is no hardware supported by this compiler in my computers.
Think this should be optional Additional info: * package version(s) * config and/or log files etc. * link to upstream bug report, if any Steps to reproduce: |

As it stands, blender doesn't run if that pkg is forcibly removed. Therefore it cannot be an optdepend (currently). Also, oneapi is supposed to be an open standard i.e. it doesn't just target Intel hardware IIUC. Let's see what the PM says but I suspect you might be sadly outta luck.

If we want to enable OneAPI support at all, Blender currently only supports hard dependencies and no dynamic loading. This is also how the official Blender upstream images are built. There's two ways to solve this: 1) provide a separate Blender package just for OneAPI or 2) cut down the Intel dependencies to be more manageable. We're currently working on 2) and I think that's going to alleviate a lot of the pain already. If that's still not enough, we can think about 1).

We now only have a combined additional 40MBs in deps for Blender and intel-compute-runtime is in optdeps. I think that's quite reasonable and about the same what upstream is shipping in their official builds. Do you think we can consider this closed?
