* Package name : xdg-desktop-portal-generic Version : 0.3.0 Upstream Author : Greg Lamberson <[email protected]> * URL : https://github.com/lamco-admin/xdg-desktop-portal-generic * License : MIT OR Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Rust Description : Generic XDG Desktop Portal backend for Wayland compositors xdg-desktop-portal-generic is a portal backend for Wayland compositors that implements the ScreenCast, RemoteDesktop, Screenshot, and Clipboard portal interfaces using standard Wayland protocols rather than compositor-specific D-Bus APIs. It works with any compositor that supports the standard wlr or ext Wayland protocols: - Screen capture: wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1, ext-image-copy-capture-v1 - Input injection: wlr-virtual-pointer/keyboard, EIS protocol, uinput - Clipboard: wlr-data-control-unstable-v1 - Screenshots: wlr-screencopy, ext-image-copy-capture Unlike compositor-specific backends (xdg-desktop-portal-gnome, xdg-desktop-portal-kde), this backend works across compositors including Sway, Hyprland, labwc, Wayfire, dwl, niri, COSMIC, and others. It fills the same niche as xdg-desktop-portal-wlr but with broader protocol support (ext protocols, EIS, clipboard). This package is DFSG-compliant (MIT/Apache-2.0). I intend to maintain this package.
