Doesn't work properly under Wayland

Created by: hedayat

I've tried this extension under Wayland (Fedora 25), but it doesn't work on login. It reports a timeout error connecting to hamster DBus service (don't have the exact error message right now, can report later).

Surprisingly, sometimes it suddenly starts to work (probably after locking/unlocking the screen or some other events, but have not found the exact procedure to make it appear). But it doesn't work right after login anyway.

Update: error message: Gio.IOErrorEnum: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Hamster: Timeout was reached

And current running services: % pgrep -af hamster 10067 python2 /usr/bin/hamster-service

hamster-windows-service seems to be unable to run automatically when using Wayland, but works fine under X.
