package.yml

152–162

# EGL
install -D -m 00644 10_nvidia_wayland.json $installdir/usr/share/egl/egl_external_platform.d/10_nvidia_wayland.json
install -D -m 00644 15_nvidia_gbm.json $installdir/usr/share/egl/egl_external_platform.d/15_nvidia_gbm.json

# GBM
install -D -d -m 00755 $installdir/usr/lib/gbm
ln -s "/usr/lib/libnvidia-allocator.so.$version" $installdir/usr/lib/gbm/nvidia-drm_gbm.so

# Make sure glvnd knows where to be
install -D -d -m 00755 $installdir/usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d
install -m 00644 10_nvidia.json $installdir/usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d/10_nvidia.json

This should wire up GBM and should be the correct layout of the json files (according to this resource)

FWIW I applied those changes to the previous beta driver and Plasma Wayland worked with GBM after I rebuilt kwin from the latest 5.23 git source.

package.yml
152–162	You're definitely right about the symlink. I completely forgot about that when I introduced the last beta version. Was taking me a while to find the nvidia d1oc about the gbm-json location and then it slipped my mind that I had to create that link as well. No idea about the impact of the other files to be honest. Have to take another look at that.
