Wayland Qtile current git master crashes when the first window is opened
See original GitHub issueI’m usually running the latest git master on Wayland to test the latest additions/fixes and to be able to merge in patches. I know this is not necessarily a good idea, so this issue is just to notify you of a new problem. The current git master crashes silently when the first window is opened. There is no relevant error in Qtile.log, but journalctl shows the following:
feb 04 08:40:23 laptop systemd-coredump[31713]: [🡕] Process 31418 (qtile) of user 1000 dumped core.
Module /usr/bin/python3.10 with build-id 12c63a5e2c0b1214b6384a2631e9515614ef42a3
Stack trace of thread 31418:
#0 0x00007f9ab92b1ca4 n/a (n/a + 0x0)
ELF object binary architecture: AMD x86-64
I’d like to be able to debug these kind of problems better, but the docs don’t go into low level debugging with Wayland, so I really don’t know what my options are.

Ah OK. That input-inhibitor PR probably needs a rebase then, and just isn’t compatible any more. So if master is functional then all good. I will get to writing a small bit about debugging soon 😃
Yeah, I’m sorry! @justinesmithies is right, current git master works just fine. I forgot to disable the merging in of https://github.com/qtile/qtile/pull/2852 in my build script, which worked fine until one of the last master commits. Anyway, I guess now this ticket should be more about the docs describing how to get stacktraces than about my crash specifically…
