[Interest] QtWayland and window decorations on Raspberry Pi

[Guido Seifert]

Hi,
when I start a test program (actually analogclock from the examples) under wayland using the brcm plugin, it works, but I don't have any window decorations. Ok, I read that brcm does not support those. Only wayland-egl provides window decorations atm. Not always easy to see which info is out of date. I found that at least at one point wayland-egl was not working on RPi. 

Does anyone know if this is still true? 

I played a bit around with the Qt configuration and was able to build libqwayland-egl.so. Seems even to work. I get the alarmclock with window decorations. However, when I start the program in a weston terminal I get:

> Using Wayland-EGL
> EGL not available

This irritates me a bit. Of course, the analogclock is not the most complicated program. Anyone an idea if this terminal message is only
a glitch, or if there is somewhere a disaster in waiting?
