I just uploaded 2.0.2 with support for Wayland enabled.

Unless the package gets rejected or fails to build in tue build
daemons, everything should be fine and should be available in the
mirrors within hours or days.

The support for Wayland is experimental, so things might be a bit
rough.  It would be nice if people confirm that it's working, or if
there are problems.


Cheers and thanks for the report and suggestions.
