Default wayland/sway on openbsd

hello

in addition of xorg/dwm/windowmaker on my machine, id like to taste wayland/sway
i saw both packages are presents on openports.pl

so i added the matching urls to installurl,
thus the wayland package was found, in addition of meson installed
but
impossible to download sway, nor the various elements the program requires for compilation (i would prefer directly binaries, but pkg_info -Q cant find sway)

wlroots, cairoscdoc, gdk-pixbuf2, were unable to be installed, while wayland/meson, were. I think i well made the configuration about the openports.pl, what did i made wrong?

thank you

The wayland/sway port wasn't added to the bulk package build tree until the month after 7.4 was released. You can either wait for 7.5-release, or you can run -current, which in the Project's development cycle is very close to being tagged for -release.

Correction: -current has moved beyond what will be 7.5-release. It happened about 3 days ago.
