I am trying to get Wayland to run on Ubuntu 14.04. I found a webpage that has step by step install PPA and then do this next steps, but it is not working. I am trying to get it to working in VBox Client, so I can write in C to see if I can port a forked app I did for X and ImLib2 to Wayland. I have not gotten as far as looking into ImLib2 and Wayland yet. But still would like to get Wayland running on this VBox Client



these are the two web pages I am working off of so far.



Wayland/ProgrammingClient



How to Install Latest Wayland in Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome via PPA



I switched WM to IceWm too - because I don't like Gnome not that this stops the installing of Wayland.



Anyone know how to get Wayland running on Ubuntu?



userd@userx-VirtualBox:~$ sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:wayland.admin/daily-builds

OK
userd@userx-VirtualBox:~$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install weston xwayland


Then I get this error, telling me it is not in repo:



Package 'xwayland' has no installation candidate


It has these two in the repo I still have no idea what to install which one, if any one of them:



xwayland-lts-utopic - Xwayland X server

xwayland-lts-vivid - Xwayland X server

          The error is telling you there is no package named wayland in the repositories. That's not surprising since, according to the repository's page, there is indeed no such package. Try installing wayland instead:



          sudo apt-get install wayland


          Either the page you followed has a typo or the package was called xwayland when the article was written. Next time, try querying available package with:



          apt-cache search wayland
