• Debug Log:

• Configuration File:

  exec foot

• Stack Trace:

n/a

• Description:

sway itself logs [Apr 15 11:52:30] user hugo/sway: 15:23:49.181 [ERROR] [wlr] [types/xdg_shell/wlr_xdg_surface.c:169] A configure is scheduled for an uninitialized xdg_surface 0x7fd94efccc50 when a new window opens.

sway only logs an error (thousands of times per day), but I see no other symptoms.

I can reproduce this with foot, firefox, audacious and nemo. I suspect that it happens with any regular client.

Clients which render layer-shell don't seem to have this problem.

I bisected with python checkout-wlroots.py && rm -rf build && meson build && meson compile -C build && ./build/sway/sway -c test.conf.

checkout-wlroots.py checks out the latest wlroots commit for a given sway commit

Ah, calling wlr_xdg_toplevel_set_wm_capabilities implicitly schedules a configure event via wlr_xdg_surface_schedule_configure, but it is too early in this case.
