Hi, i am building Mate desktop for fedora and i like to update mate-panel to 1.23/24 for fedora 32 and 31 the next months. New mate-panel can be build with Mir-wayland support. Btw. gtk-layer-shell is a BR for new mate-panel and can't build without it. Can you please build gtk-layer-shell for f31?
Hi, sure, i thought 'gtk-layer-shell' only needed for Wayfire and this blockers prevent build it for now: - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/wlroots/pull-request/4 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1759629
FEDORA-2019-0368e29ba3 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 31. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-0368e29ba3
Thanks, that was fast :) interesting that wayfire is already in fedora. That will make my life easier to test our Mate application on wayland. Currently there is a effort of MATE and Mir devs to port Mate to wayland the next year (or more). And mate-panel is the first application which has first minimal wayland support (not all applet). See https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/porting-mate-apps-to-wayland/12670 But using wayfire is also option (for me). I also planed to bring in gtk-layer-shell to fedora, but you was faster ;)
Wayfire pre 0.3 version already in Rawhide, yep, but right after this developers released 0.3 version which requires new wlroots with come ABI changes so need to wait Sway SIG guys when they build new wlroots, but they can't do that for current Fedora release unfortunately. But i can build "old" Wayfire < 0.3 version for F31 if you wish. I didn't build it yet because afraid that users will fill up RHBZ with bugs. :) > Currently there is a effort of MATE and Mir devs to port Mate to wayland the next year (or more). This is interesting...

It's sufficient to use it with f32 for me.
