Missing dependency: wayland-server

[donni-h]

I keep getting the same error message on both Fedora and Voidlinux.

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

On both of the machines I have Gnome and other Wayland WMs installed and made sure that all listed dependencies are pulled in. I also checked both repos, and neither contains a package calles 'wayland-server'. Is there a fix to this, as I would really love to give Newm a shot :)

On Fedora, I have e.g. these files:

> rpm -qf /usr/lib/libwayland-server.so.0 /usr/include/wayland-server.h
libwayland-server-1.20.0-4.fc36.i686
wayland-devel-1.20.0-4.fc36.x86_64

so try sudo dnf install libwayland-server wayland-devel

On Fedora, I have e.g. these files:

> rpm -qf /usr/lib/libwayland-server.so.0 /usr/include/wayland-server.h
libwayland-server-1.20.0-4.fc36.i686
wayland-devel-1.20.0-4.fc36.x86_64

so try sudo dnf install libwayland-server wayland-devel

Alright, that did the job. There were a bunch of other dependencies still missing, that weren't listed in the repo. I could track them all down, except for GLESv2, is that even a thing in fedora?

[cben]

yeah, this one is pretty mysterious:

> rpm -qf /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/glesv2.pc
libglvnd-devel-1.4.0-2.fc36.x86_64
