Description Tim-Philipp Müller 2018-09-19 10:15:37 UTC 
None of the clutter examples work for me on GNOME wayland. I run them with CLUTTER_BACKEND=x11 - I assume that's supposed to work?

Runtime warnings about source not linking to gl things, and/or crashes.
Comment 1 Matthew Waters (ystreet00) 2018-09-19 10:54:59 UTC 
Most of them haven't worked for a while.
Comment 2 Julien Isorce 2018-09-20 03:27:35 UTC 
I can take a look but I wonder if it is worth the trouble, is clutter still an active project these days ?
Comment 3 Tim-Philipp Müller 2018-09-20 07:58:40 UTC 
Good question. I would say it's probably not worth it and we should just remove these.

Totem still uses clutter-gst but only because no one has ported it to GstPlayer + GtkGLSink yet as far as I know (and because GstPlayer is not yet in -base and missing some features).
