Description seb 2023-09-20 10:54:23 UTC 
Since 29.1, Emacs  now supports being built with pure GTK.

With it, the Emacs binary will work on any underlying window system
supported by GDK, like Wayland or Broadway.

Having an Emacs built with pure GTK will work better on Wayland and fractional screen scaling. With the actual version of Emacs, if I enable fractional screen scaling feature, even without using it, I get a blurry Emacs window.

But this solution on X is known to have problems. Maybe 2 pkg ?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Emacs with dnf
2. Start Emacs
3. Inspect variable "system-configuration-options", there is no "--with-pgtk" flag
Actual Results:  
Emacs is not built with Pure GTK enabled

Expected Results:  
Emacs built with Pure GTK enabled

I guess this should be reopened as from what I understand it wasn't done as part of 2233581 after all.

It was, but for some reason the update hasn't hit the mirrors yet: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-642488cf1f
