Bug#1033199: blender: Does not run on Wayland: GHOST: failed to initialize display for back-end(s): ['X11']
Package: blender
Version: 3.4.1+dfsg-2+b1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: public.michael@franzl.name
Dear Maintainer,
I am attempting to start Blender on Wayland. It immediately stops with the error
GHOST: failed to initialize display for back-end(s): ['X11']
However, the same version of Blender starts without issue when downloaded from blender.org .
In fact, Wayland is officially supported since 3.4x onward. See https://code.blender.org/2022/10/wayland-support-on-linux/
Perhaps it should be built with the flag WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND if possible?
Best regards,
Michael
