i can confirm that release 1.21 broke something important on sway and conky does not display anything on desktop anymore (alpine/postmarketos, wayland/sway). |
Also on labwc-0.7.2 debian/testing (BunsenLabs wrappers) - shall await update in apt to 1.21.1 and see. Thanks. |

thanks for looking into this. can only test when 1.20.1 is available in alpine edge... but hopefully someone else can!! |
|
I'm on gentoo using wayfire (based on wlroots) and here as well nothing is displayed on the wayland background in app-admin/conky-1.21.2. Pulling 1.20.1, it works again. |
