           Summary: Wayland backend depends on ordering of globals in the
                    display server
    Classification: Platform
           Product: gtk+
           Version: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: wayland
        AssignedTo: gtk-bugs at gtk.org

     GNOME version: ---


Currently, when the wl_seat global is received, it assumes that the
wl_data_device_manager global has already been seen, and uses it to create a
data device. If the wl_seat occurs before the wl_data_device_manager, a crash
occurs.

Similarly, when the wl_seat global is received, it is assumed that the
wl_compositor global has already been seen and tries to create a pointer
surface with it.

Both of these actions should be moved until after the first round trip to
ensure that the required globals have already been bound.
