thank you both for the feedback.

I may be a bit confused about building emacs for wayland rather than x windows

This tuxedo laptop uses ubuntu 24.04 lts with wayland not x. I want to
avoid mixing x with this system if possible.

what compile options (docs) do you recommend I consider when building emacs
for instance from latest git repo?
