Bug Description

Launching ubuntu-bug from a terminal under wayland session launches in CLI mode, rather than in Xwayland. Presumably this is because $DISPLAY doesnt seem to be set under wayland by default.

Perhaps apport should also check for WAYLAND_DISPLAY in ui_run_terminal(), since X is still available in that case via Xwayland.

---------------
apport (2.16-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    - Add a new method ProblemReport.extract_keys() which writes binary keys
      (which can be very large) directly to files without loading them all
      into memory first. Use that in apport-unpack. Thanks Louis Bouchard!
      (LP: #1307413)
    - launchpad backend: Work with Python 3, now that launchpadlib exists for
      Python 3. (LP: #1153671)
    - apport-bug, apport-gtk: Also check for $WAYLAND_SESSION, to use
      apport-gtk instead of apport-cli under Wayland. Thanks Tim Lunn.
      (LP: #1418766)
    - apport-gtk: When running under Wayland, avoid Gdk/Wnck operation for
      setting crash window modal to the PID of the crashed window; these only
      work under X11.
    - Don't install the test suite any more, to save 1 MB of installed space.
      It can be run out of trunk easily enough, and distributions can install
      it from tests/ if they desire.
    - hookutils, attach_root_command_outputs(): Fix UnicodeDecodeError crash
      for non-textual values. (LP: #1370259)
    - ui.py: Only provide a UI to hooks if the crash db will accept the
      report. This avoids asking questions if the report is merely sent to
      whoopsie for Ubuntu stable releases. Thanks Brian Murrary.
      (LP: #1084979)
    - whoopsie-upload-all: Add package information to the report before
      calling package hooks. Thanks Brian Murray.
    - Fix check for available terminal when checking whether to display the
      "Examine locally" button.
  * Add general hook for detecting Wayland sessions and tagging them with
    "wayland-session". Thanks Timm Lunn! (LP: #1418262)
  * debian/tests/upstream-system: Copy tests from source tree, as
    /usr/share/apport/testsuite/ does not exist any more.
