fix(appimage): drop the bundled libwayland-client so EGL can start - #2
Merged
Conversation
The released AppImage opens every window blank on hosts whose Mesa is built against wayland 1.23 or newer. Mesa resolves its libwayland-client dependency to the copy linuxdeploy bundled from the build distro, which predates the symbol Mesa needs, and EGL display creation fails with EGL_BAD_PARAMETER — WebKit's render process aborts before drawing anything. Deleting the one library during the repack makes Mesa bind to the host's copy; this is the same measure the AppImage excludelist takes (mesa#11316). The library is removed in the repack rather than kept out of the bundle because Tauri gives no hook into its pinned linuxdeploy, whose excludelist predates the ban.

The released AppImage opens every window blank on hosts whose Mesa is built against wayland 1.23+ (Arch and friends, recent Fedora): Mesa binds to the bundled, older
libwayland-client.so.0and EGL display creation fails withEGL_BAD_PARAMETER, so WebKit's render process aborts before drawing.Verified by bisection against the published artifact: deleting exactly this library fixes it; the sibling
libwayland-*libs are innocent. Same measure the AppImage excludelist takes (mesa#11316, AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage#559). Removed in the repack because Tauri's pinned linuxdeploy predates the excludelist ban and offers no hook.Repacked the published v2.8.0+linux.1 AppImage with the patched script and ran it: no EGL errors, window renders, memory scan works.
