If I understand correctly, a GUI application is (or not) compatible with Wa=
yland, depending on the graphical toolkit with which it has been developed.
https://wiki.debian.org/Wayland#Toolkits
So I think that the apps developed with an incompatible toolkit or no toolk=
it at all are not wayland compatible and need to run on a nested X server (=
Xwayland) inside Wayland.
