Build for software rendering only?

 

Hi folks,'

This is something I was asked yesterday and I don't know the answer.  Is
there a way to tell KiCad to compile for software rendering only, or do we
have a hard dependency on GPUs now?

I checked
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kicad-product-committers/kicad/product/view/head:/Documentation/compiling/build-config.txt
but didn't see anything about GPU/software rendering.

Please note this is not a feature request--just wondering if we can do it
with what we have today.

Thanks!
