During startup, xprop fails, thus preventing the proper launch of daemon_wallpapoz

I'm using fedora 32

Maybe you run on Wayland, instead of X. Try to check it.

I am indeed on Wayland!

Should I simply skip the xprop script at /usr/bin/daemon_wallpapoz and run /usr/libexec/daemon_wallpapoz at startup instaed?

Am I running Wayland?

I don't think that helps. I need to find a xprop replacement in Wayland. I need to find a command to change the desktop background in Wayland. Give me some time. I'll try to look a way to do it.
