Hi, Wayback (https://wayback.freedesktop.org/) is a way to run X11 desktop environments over Wayland. This port is a preview (wayback itself is not finished, and wayland support on OpenBSD is also incomplete).
ok to import before the release or is it better to wait ?
cat pkg/DESCR
Wayback is a X11 compatibility layer which allows for running full X11
desktop environments using Wayland components. It is essentially a
stub compositor which provides just enough Wayland capabilities to
host a rootful Xwayland server.
It is intended to eventually replace the classic X.Org server, thus
reducing maintenance burden of X11 applications, but a lot of work
needs to be done first.
Wayback is an experimental state: expect breaking changes, and lots of
bugs.
To run wayback on OpenBSD use a wrapper like this one:
#! /bin/ksh
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=${HOME}/.local/run
if [ ! -d $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR ]; then
mkdir -m 700 -p $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
fi
export WLR_DRM_DEVICES=/dev/dri/card0
export LIBSEAT_BACKEND=noop
exec ${PREFIX}/bin/wayback-session $*
