When trying to replace xvfb-run with xwfb-run, I found that xwayland-run-0.0.4-2.el10.noarch does not work in RHEL 10:
$ xwfb-run -- true Failed to start the compositor: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'weston'
Ok, a default compositor is not installed. What options do we have:
# rpm -q --requires xwayland-run (weston or cage or kwin-wayland or mutter or gnome-kiosk) [...]
RHEL 10 repository only contains mutter and gnome-kiosk. I install them:
# rpm -q mutter gnome-kiosk mutter-47.alpha-3.el10.x86_64 gnome-kiosk-47~alpha-1.el10.x86_64
But none of them work:
$ xwfb-run -c mutter -- true Xwayland failed to start! $ xwfb-run -c gnome-kiosk -- true Failed to connect to the compositor!
Compare to Fedora 42 with xwayland-run-0.0.4-7.fc41.noarch where mutter-47.0-1.fc42 works:
$ xwfb-run -c mutter -- true $ echo $? 0
as well as the default weston:
$ xwfb-run -- true $ echo $?
I would be great if xwfb-run worked out of the box on RHEL 10.
(My original reproducer involved executing tests of perl-Tk-EntryCheck-0.04-39.fc42:
$ xwfb-run -- perl -Ilib t/02_Tk-EntryCheck.t 1..2 # Running under perl version 5.040000 for linux # Current time local: Wed Sep 25 14:52:02 2024 # Current time GMT: Wed Sep 25 12:52:02 2024 # Using Test.pm version 1.31 ok 1 ok 2
but I don't think the X11 client matters here.)
