Can't start Weston anymore

5

For a few weeks, I haven't been able to start Weston anymore on my Arch Linux machine.

My Graphics card is:

$ glxinfo  | grep 'renderer string'
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile

And my mesa version is 10.5.3.

And this is what I get when I try launching weston:

$ weston-launch

Date: 2015-04-14 CEST
[08:53:48.655] weston 1.7.0

               Bug reports to: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Wayland&component=weston&version=1.7.0

I've Googled around and I found that it might be a regression bug in mesa but that bug was for mesa 10.5.0 or older. So I'm wondering if it's actually a bug, if the bug is still there, and if there's a workaround for this.
