10 months agoYou could check openSUSE or Arch Linux’s packaging to see how you can achieve this.
I think the one of openSUSE is the most concrete as it will use the Wayland binary on Wayland and the X11 binary on X11 and so on.
Check out the spec file here:

The build process starts at the %build section.
If the author could only communicate better and bring his changes upstream…
I tried to see what do make of his first patch against Emacs 28 that bring threading to Gnus however it was quite hard to rebase/split them up as the original patch was just one big blob.
E.g. he doesn’t just add threading to Gnus but also remove or rename variables, e.g. secondary select methods. He doesn’t explain changes, he adds unnecessary or rude comments to the commits or code.
