Bug ID: 1384671
           Summary: system-config-language does not work under Wayland
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 25
         Component: system-config-language
          Severity: low
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
        QA Contact: [e-mail]

Description of problem:

system-config-language can't be launched on a Gnome+Wayland session.
Here's the output I get when launching system-config-language from terminal:

$ system-config-language 
No protocol specified
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
No protocol specified
Unable to init server: Impossibile connettersi: Connection refused
No protocol specified
Unable to init server: Impossibile connettersi: Connection refused

(system-config-language.py:5558): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-language-3.4.0-1.fc25.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open system-config-language

Actual results:
The tool crashes.

Expected results:
Ideally, the tool should work under wayland too

Additional info:
I set "severity" to low, since Gnome uses different tools in order to change
system's language.

--- Comment #1 from Giulio 'juliuxpigface'  ---
I can confirm the issue isn't reproducible on Gnome+Xorg. Setting this to block
the "Wayland-related" tracker.

so I tested the workaround suggested in bug#1274451 which is working fine.

Execute this first 
xhost +si:localuser:root

and then run this application.

I still have not got time to look how can this application be started under
wayland without any extra settings.
