Oh dear! I noticed this: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
https://git.enlightenment.org/core/enlightenment.git/tree/README.wayland |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
which states that efl *must* be built with --enable-systemd option. I am |
| 27 |
running openrc ... so I don't know if the above just requires this as a build |
| 28 |
time dependency, or is needs systemd to be running. Anyway, from that write |
| 29 |
up and the Known Issues at the bottom it seems Wayland is not ready for prime |
| 30 |
time yet. |
