Hello everyone,
I would like to use Kodi on a composer Wayland/Weston, I did my tests in Debian/X64 with these parameters :

Code:

-DCORE_PLATFORM_NAME=wayland -DWAYLAND_RENDER_SYSTEM=gl

The test being successful, I try to do it on a Mali/Amlogic GPU, so I can use it only in GLES :

Code:

-DCORE_PLATFORM_NAME=wayland -DWAYLAND_RENDER_SYSTEM=gles --enable-codec=amcodec

Without having the Intel / GLES in X64, I would like to know if it is normal that I have this compilation error, with the version 18.0b3-Leia, as well as the master ? :

Code:

Is it recommended to use Kodi in GL for Wayland ?

I thank you in advance for your help.
