[Desktop-packages] [Bug 954352] Re: Enable wayland backend
Oh, I'm sorry but this isn't going to be possible. Extra backends get compiled right into GDK. This means that libgtk-3-0 gets a dependency on wayland and libxkbcommon and there's no way to split it out. It would always have been difficult to get wayland into main as a build dep of GTK, but it really won't be possible to have GTK+ depending on wayland. Sorry.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 954352] Re: Enable wayland backend
This is a debdiff from the gtk package currently in precise (3.4.1-0ubuntu1) to my ppa which has the wayland backend enabled (3.4.1-0ubuntu1+wayland2 in https://launchpad.net/~darxus/+archive /wayland-gtk ). What is needed to get this in quantal? The changes are: 1) 1 patch to default to X11 output before Wayland (from krh) which fixes some X breakage, from gtk master. 2) 7 patches to remove dependency on cairo-gl (from robster), from gtk master. 3) Add --enable-wayland-backend and --enable-x11-backend to DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS. 4) Add libwayland-dev and libxkbcommon-dev to build dependencies. Since these patches are already in gtk master, and there will be another stable release from current gtk master before Quantal is released, this won't be a delta from upstream requiring long term maintenance.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 954352] Re: Enable wayland backend
Rob Bradford provided a patch to make gtk built with both wayland and x11 backends usable: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672358#c8 (by disabling the wayland clipboard when both are built). When GTK+ 3.4 is released next week it will be merged into Ubuntu Precise. But it appears to have been decided that this patch will not be included until GTK+ 3.4.1, and Ubuntu won't cherry pick it because the wayland backend isn't being enabled anyway (because of the remaining Nvidia propreitary problem and the fact that it's way past feature freeze). #ubuntu-desktop on irc.freenode.net appears to be where ubuntu gtk+ decisions are made.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 954352] Re: Enable wayland backend
I did some testing of the previously mentioned ppa:ricotz/staging under Precise. It is not at all usable. Due, I believe, to problems in gtk+, not the packaging. ricotz tells me that enabling both the wayland and x11 backends for gtk+ is just broken. Without adding a ~/.xsessionrc, X does not start. After adding ~/.xsessionrc containing export CLUTTER_BACKEND=x11 export GDK_BACKEND=x11 X didn't start on startup, but did start when I ran startx. Didn't do much other than notify me that nautilus crashed and ask me if I wanted to report it. I tried running gnome-terminal from the console. It gave me the expected error that DISPLAY wasn't set, so I set it (export DISPLAY=:0). Then it gave a XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set warning, which is a wayland thing. So I set the above two BACKEND variables in that shell, and tried again, and gnome-terminal gave me: Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_wayland_device_get_selection_type_atoms_libgtk_only: assertion `GDK_IS_DEVICE_CORE (gdk_device)' failed Before doing any of this, I recommend: apt-get install ppa-purge Also, if you end up at a text console that isn't responding to your keyboard, do alt-sysrq-r. And if you need to switch between nvidia proprietary and nouveau drivers from the console because X won't start, you can use jockey-text, although it looks like it doesn't update /etc/X11/xorg.conf, which is necessary, so have working backup copies of that file. You should also know about rebooting via alt-sysrq reisub, although I haven't had to do that in this process. What I did was, freshly install Precise, then: sudo apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/staging sudo apt-get install libcairo2 libcairo-gobject2 gir1.2-gtk-3.0 libgail-3-0 libgtk-3-0 libgtk-3-bin libgtk3-common Then to revert: sudo ppa-purge ppa:ricotz/staging I also came across a weird bug where a third line containing ain was showing up in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ricotz-staging-precise.list, probably an add-apt-repository bug.

Bug #725434 resulted in cairo-gl being disabled for causing a 300% increase in memory use at login as compared to previously. Comment #12 mentioned a theory that this memory problem was actually in a version of libc nolonger used in Precise. I just tested the difference between memory use of some applications I expect to be using gtk+ at startup in Precise with and without cairo-gl enable. I installed cairo-gl via: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/staging sudo apt-get install libcairo2 libcairo-gobject2 While total real + swap = virtual memory is about the same, a number of applications do have roughly 300% of the memory usage with cairo-gl enabled as they do with it disabled.
