# XXX(2024-11-26): nixpkgs' signal-desktop has bugs on wayland:
# - it won't open a UI (though it *does* on Xwayland)
# - it may hang on exit (?), characterized by these log messages:
# Dec 03 13:46:23 moby signal-desktop[4097]: [4097:1203/134623.906367:ERROR:ozone_platform_x11.cc(240)] Missing X server or $DISPLAY
# Dec 03 13:46:23 moby signal-desktop[4097]: [4097:1203/134623.909667:ERROR:env.cc(255)] The platform failed to initialize. Exiting.
