I don't remember exactly the context for this, but if I try to remove it now, there is no dependency on it. I will re add it as an explicit dependency.
Thanks for reporting!

Hello there!
I was doing a fresh installation of Fedora Silverblue and after Fedora Workstation for comparison and testing if I can migrate to Silverblue. For that I just installed few things including the nvidia drivers and did not run my script that installs everything I use or need, but after installing I couldn't log in anymore. GDM would freeze... after installing some packages, reinstalling nvidia drivers, thinking that was related to the current kernel or CachyOS's kernel, I removed Silverblue installed Workstation to have the same thing happen. Long story short, after a while I installed some mesa packages and egl-wayland, and it was the lack of egl-wayland that was causing the problem. To make sure, I tested with Silverblue and Workstation, since I was not sure if it was just egl-wayland. After both installations stop freezing as soon as I installed egl-wayland I confirmed it and also tested with RPMFusion. With RPMFusin egl-wayland is installed together with the nvidia drivers. I saw on netgativo17.org that one of the packages is egl-wayland, so it's probably missing from the dependencies.
