A user reports the following error when trying to launch MythTV frontend on Fedora 31 Beta:

qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate()

Per this forum thread it looks like it's no longer supported:

In *theory* fixed with later Qt and later xdg-shell (I think Qt 5.12 (possibly backported to Qt 5.11) and weston 6). However, F31 beta's may be problematic in other ways. Is it reproducable on F30 stable?

I can confirm that I'm getting the same error under Wayland and Fedora 31 final with the following packages installed: 

qt5-qtwayland-5.12.5-2.fc31.x86_64
mutter-3.34.1-4.fc31.x86_64
weston-7.0.0-2.fc31.x86_64

MythTV works fine under Xorg, however.

Mark,

is this something we can take care of in your OpenGL rewrite, or do we need to address this separately?
