Info

This is intended much more as a "heads up" warning than a "bug" ;-(

$ equery list wayland dev-libs/wayland-protocols wlr-randr wlroots dwl

[IP-] [ ] dev-libs/wayland-9999:0
[IP-] [ ] dev-libs/wayland-protocols-9999:0
[IP-] [ ] gui-libs/wlroots-0.16.2:0/16 <-----
[I-O] [ ] gui-wm/dwl-9999:0

Description

With above installation, I can work with
[IP-] [ ] mail-client/thunderbird-102.11.0:0 .

Switching to
[--O] [ -] gui-wm/dwl-9999-r1:0
depending upon
[--O] [ -] gui-wm/dwl-9999-r1:0 <--- Branch: wlroots-next

thunderbird crashes replicably on "Send".

Typically, it manages to send the mail & move it to "Sent messages" subfolder before;
sometimes the message is still in "Draft" when Tb crashes already.

In comparison,
[IP-] [ ] www-client/firefox-113.0.1:rapid
runs quite stable.

Update

To me it seems that
--> BETA x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-535.43.02:0/535
has greatly improved the situation;
perhaps because of
o "Add support for version 4 of the linux-dmabuf wayland protocol." <-----
[c.f. Release Notes].

But: Closing sub-windows via ^W crashes the whole application.

Corresponding Bug Report upstream:
1836092 [ Thunderbird Wayland port ] close sub-window crashes whole application
