Hey All,
I have 21.0.440 installed on my Rocky Linux 10 system. However, I am not able to run 20.5.684. I get the following missing library (libXss.so.1). This is from the package (libXScrnSaver). This library is not used in Wayland, only in x11, and XWayland is not letting me launch. Are there any workarounds to getting 20.5.684 running on wayland and Rocky 10?

The dependency on libXss has been removed in Houdini 21.

In order to run H20.5, you could give this a shot (untested):
sudo dnf install epel-release
sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled epel-testing
sudo dnf install libXScrnSaver
sudo dnf config-manager --set-disabled epel-testing
