I've been using Bazzite Linux lately, and I'm trying to compile Angband because I want to play the windowed version of the game and only the console version appears to be available from the software repositories. However when I try to build either the X11 or the SDL2 frontend, I get an error saying that X is not installed, even though I do have libx11 installed. I tried installing libx11-dev and libx11-devel, but those don't seem to exist in Homebrew where I normally get development packages from, so I'm guessing libx11 is what I need. Could this have anything to do with Bazzite using Wayland and requiring an emulation layer for X11 apps? Also, which frontend is recommended, X11 or SDL2? What's the difference between the two? On Windows I didn't have this option! Thanks!

I suspect it's to do with Wayland, but I'm pretty ignorant about how Wayland vs X works. Personally, I would recommend the SDL2 frontend over x11.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
