Updated hyprland, niri, lxqt-wayland-session & sway packages fix bug

Publication date: 25 Aug 2026
Modification date: 25 Aug 2026
Type: bugfix
Affected Mageia releases : 10

Description

Not all the suitable window managers for a session lxqt in wayland are
suggested when installing task-lxqt-wayland or task-lxqt-wayland-minimal
with urpmi in the command line.
This update fixes the issue and brings improvements to starting a
session lxqt in wayland for the first time, without having to make
additional configurations. This is done with the new
lxqt-wayland+hyprland, lxqt-wayland+kwin, lxqt-wayland+labwc,
lxqt-wayland+niri & lxqt-wayland+sway packages.
Please after the update, install the one matching the windows manager
you are currently using with lxqt wayland session.
This update also disable the sessions for niri and hyprland, please see
the warning when updated versions are installed and the bug report.
Note that tools like Mageia Control Center, currently just work out of
the box with lxqt wayaland session using kwin.
