found no working method on labwc compositor

[masrazi]

I installed wallutils from Arch Linux repository. Both of setwallpaper and setrandom didn't work. I get this ouput:

➜ setwallpaper ~/Pictures/simpledesktop/tardis.png
Could not set wallpaper: found no working method for setting the desktop wallpaper
~ 
✘1 ➜ setrandom ~/Pictures/simpledesktop/             
Found no working method for setting the desktop wallpaper.

OS : Artix Linux
Wayland compositor : labwc

It working fine when using sway. Did I miss some configuration for my compositor? Or it didn't support labwc?

Thanks for reporting! It does not support labwc yet. It seems like every Wayland compositor has a different way of setting the wallpaper, while the X window managers have more common methods.

I added code to main that works under labwc here.

Please check if it also works on your system.

It requires swaybg and pkill to work.
