--- Comment #9 from Pekka Paalanen <ppaalanen at gmail.com> ---
Korbinian, did you perhaps build weston with --with-cairo=gl or
--with-cairo=gles2?

If you (well, Arch) did, then it's no wonder weston-desktop-shell and others
cannot run. The Nvidia proprietary drivers simply do not support running
Wayland EGL clients. The stderr output might have contained more info on why
they failed, since at some level weston-desktop-shell should be able to deal
with EGL failure, but maybe it just crashed instead.

A solution to that is to build Weston with --with-cairo=image, or moving to
Nouveau.

The original bug here had nothing in common with your problem. If you want to
keep investigating this, please open a new bug.
