Support for EGL on Wayland #10

Closed dkondor closed 10 months ago

dkondor commented 4 years ago

On current master, OpenGL does not seem to be working on Wayland. It always shows as errror: Can't initialise EGL display, OpenGL will not be available This patch adds the necessary support to create and manage EGL surfaces when running on Wayland.

It is a shame this project has been abandoned. It has hooked me to Linux when Ubuntu "Lucid Lynx 10.04" has come out. Compiz has been a heaven for me. (Though still using in on Arch Linux ;-) )

Is there an official fork?

None as far as I know, only unofficial ones such as the one in my repo: https://github.com/dkondor/cairo-dock-core/

I've looked at it and it seems to have some interesting Wayland improvements. The latest release of the official project is nearly a decade old; at the very least, they could tag the current repo as 3.4.2. It would be nice if we could get distros to ship your newer fork (or perhaps a consolidation of various forks); I've known projects in the past where distros start using forks instead of the upstream project (sometimes to the chagrin of the maintainer of the upstream project).

I would be happy if my changes can get to more people, but I have no experience with packaging :( also, I'm not sure what would be the correct way to indicate the unofficial status of the fork

FYI I managed to create an Ubuntu PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kondor-dani/+archive/ubuntu/ppa-cairo-dock-wayland
