Why is x11 needed? #3053

Open starbasessd opened 1 month ago

starbasessd commented 1 month ago

Trying to install in Lite version to minimize system usage and X11 gets installed during "sudo motioneye_init". A lot of other un-needed software gets installed, too, just tryting to figure out how to lighten up the load.

What is needed is motion, v4l-utils, ffmpeg and curl, and those are installed by motioneye_init if they are not already present. If some of those depend on X11 on some specific Linux distro would be odd IMO (none of them have graphical user interface), but it all depends on the distribution. Care to share any details? By "Lite" do you mean Linux Lite, or Raspbian Lite or yet something else?
