This still exists in precise when using the latest GTK git, somehow these paticular apps don't detect the existing Wayland backend, unless they are started with gdb, strace, or ltrace.
AND interestingly enough, for example if I copy gnomine out of /usr/games into /usr/bin, and start it directly with /usr/bin/gnomine, it works with the Wayland backend, but if I run it as /usr/games/gnomine, it fails to find the Wayland backend... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-games in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979066 Title: Wayland support Status in “gnome-games” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “vala-0.16” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On Precise, when GTK is rebuilt with the Wayland backend enabled, gnomine and mahjongg do not work with Wayland. The maintainer of those packages suggests this is a problem with vala, which they were recently ported to.
