Created attachment 335823 [details] [review]
add the missing check

When trying to build without native backend, the build fails because of undefined macro META_IS_BACKEND_NATIVE in src/wayland/meta-wayland-keyboard.c:425. All other places this macro is used are guarded with an #ifdef HAVE_NATIVE_BACKEND.

The attached patch adds the missing ifdef.

Not that it really matters, since there is currently little point to building mutter with the wayland backend but without the native backend, but the correct way would be to ifdef the whole function, since it should only do anything if the native backend is used.
Comment 3 Gilles Dartiguelongue 2016-11-08 08:10:54 UTC 
Please note that building with wayland-backend enabled but native-backend disabled does not work either as reported in bug #772681.
Comment 4 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:50:18 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
