Trouble on wayland about safeeyes

[slgobinath]

@Yamakaky I will check it but this issue seems to be a common problem. See DeaDBeeF-Player/deadbeef#1606, https://github.com/getlantern/lantern/issues/3618 and kozec/syncthing-gtk#73.

Fixed with 24a0301. Tested on Fedora 25

Ubuntu 17.10 is still not out but i tried to use safe eyes on it, no success. I think its related to this bug, because when i run on xorg session it works.

Error i get when running safeeyes from terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/Xlib/xauth.py", line 42, in init
raw = open(filename, 'rb').read()
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/pedrolb/.Xauthority'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

@pedrolb I remember I also got this problem.
Try to create an empty file using the following command and let me know the result:

touch ~/.Xauthority

@slgobinath It worked, I never tought it would be so easy :D Thanks

But the safe eyes is running with some problems in this new version. The system tray icon didn't show at first, and the text of the exercise isn't showing as expected.

I tried a purge and reinstall and now the plugin for system tray was ok (came as on) but the text still came as a variable name. But i am running it now :)

[pedrolb]

my bad, it wasn't a clean reinstall, i purged it again and this time removed the safeeyes folder from .config. Safe Eyes working as expected, thanks a lot 👍

[slgobinath]

@pedrolb that's my fault. I implemented to upgrade from the previous version which causes to this issue. Will fix it in the next release even though it is too late.

Well at least it seems like an easy fix. I think everybody who enjoys safe eyes can understand this little problem. Thanks for the help and for this really usefull program.
