You have been subscribed to a public bug:
On Lubuntu 15.04, when trying to open Evince with GTK+ Broadway backend,
Evince reports incomplete errors and then ends.
In first terminal:
$ broadwayd -a 127.0.0.1 -p 8889 :2
Listening on /run/user/1000/broadway3.socket
In second terminal:
$ GDK_BACKEND=broadway BROADWAY_DISPLAY=:2 evince
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Permission denied
Cannot parse arguments: Cannot open display:
(There is nothing more in the output, program ends.)
gtk3-demo or gitg have GUI in a browser as expected.
Not sure if related or if it is perhaps expected, but I cannot see the
socket file (with sudo or without):
$ ls /run/user/1000/broadway3.socket
ls: cannot access /run/user/1000/broadway3.socket: No such file or directory
