I did this upgrade today on a non-desktop, and was very unpleasantly
surprised. Did we really mean to suck this many dependencies onto
machines that aren't even running X11, let alone 3D graphics and such?
Cairo is used by several packages for font-rendering (rrdtool here
pulls this in on this box), and now the dependencies have ballooned by
~130 MB.
I can always fall back to using a cairo sans X11 package out of the
AUR like https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cairo-dfb/, but just
wanted to make sure this was known.
