This new update does not run anymore on XP, Vista and what is more important: Debian 7 wheezy. I made a repo hack to update just the minimum for those who don't want to do a full upgrade, but thats no good solution. No only glibc needed an upgrade but gcc-4.9 was needed as well.

Xserver is fast and stable with Xfce, no any need need to wayland from end users perspective.
When xserver is working fine and widely used it is stupid to change the api just because the developers are lazy, now they must do double work.
This is stupid phenomenon with python, gstreamer and many other apis in linux.

Doesn't Chromium and Chrome have the same code base (except for some proprietary additions for Chrome)? In this case I'd expect to see in the next release of Google Chrome the Wayland code that's being discussed here.

When I saw Google Chrome, I was thinking about the browser which can be downloaded from https://www.google.com/chrome/ and was "Oh nice, I can get oob wayland support now. But those packages aren't built with wayland support, despite the code being available in the chromium source.
