Through the dependency chain xcb-util-renderutil->libxcb->libxau->xorg-protocols, we end up depending on xorg-protocols, which is basically a metapackage to install a bunch of small formulae X.Org needs.
Given that it's the ones from res1 that are getting reinstalled, I'm guessing that it's because of the => args that's causing them to be reinstalled.
It's much better for the typical installation to have no options involved. Options are for exceptional installations. Perhaps --with-specs should be the default and --without-specs the option? What does this option do?
If I type
brew install linuxbrew/xorg/xcb-util-renderutil
it seems to recompile a lot of packages I already have installed eg.xproto
,xextproto
...If I repeat this for another
xcb-util-*
package it does it again.Is this a bug, or is it something to do with compile time dependencies or static linking?
