The current implementation of gtk4-layer-shell dynamically loads the libwayaland-client library but only looks for `libwayland-client.so`. Since this library is only supplied by `wayland-devel` but not `libwayland-client` gtk4-layer-shell refuses to start without the development package. I've already created an [issue upstream](https://github.com/wmww/gtk4-layer-shell/issues/39) so this bug report is only for tracking upstream and releasing a new version as soon as the bug has been fixed upstream. P.S.: Is it correct, that there is only a `BuildRequires` of the `wayland-client` (and other libraries) but no `Requires`? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Write a simple application using the library 2. Try to run the application Actual Results: ERROR **: 12:51:30.979: failed to dlopen libwayland Expected Results: The library has been found.
The problem should be fixed with [version 1.0.3](https://github.com/wmww/gtk4-layer-shell/releases/tag/v1.0.3).
