Posting here what gnome says about porting to wayland, and their tests:
GNOME Applications under Wayland
GTK+ has a Wayland backend. If it was enabled at compile-time, you can run a GTK+ application under Wayland simply by:
GDK_BACKEND=wayland gnome-calculator
Applications that use Clutter or clutter-gtk also need the Clutter Wayland backend enabled:
GDK_BACKEND=wayland CLUTTER_BACKEND=wayland cheese

Posting here what gnome says about porting to wayland, and their tests:
GNOME Applications under Wayland
GTK+ has a Wayland backend. If it was enabled at compile-time, you can run a GTK+ application under Wayland simply by:
GDK_BACKEND=wayland gnome-calculator
Applications that use Clutter or clutter-gtk also need the Clutter Wayland backend enabled:
GDK_BACKEND=wayland CLUTTER_BACKEND=wayland cheese
https://wiki.gnome.org/Initiatives/Wayland/Applications
======> so hope the settings are well set at compile time; maybe a rebuilt to get sure all apps are ok.
********************************************************************************************************************************************
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu 17.10
2. Install backintime-qt4 or gparted application from above list (full may be acquired from https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=pkexec+filetype%3Adesktop+path%3A*%2Fapplications%2F*&perpkg=1&page=4 )
3a. Try to launch backintime-qt4 from shortcut "Back In Time (root)" (located in /usr/share/applications/backintime-qt4-root.desktop, it uses pkexec
($ cat /usr/share/applications/backintime-qt4-root.desktop | grep Exec
Exec=pkexec backintime-qt4)
3b. Try to launch Gparted from shortcut "GParted" (located in /usr/share/applications/gparted.desktop, it uses gparted-pkexec)
4a.1. Back In Time does not start from GUI.
4a.2. Back In Time shows error message in console:
4b. gparted-pkexec does not start, reports error
$ gparted-pkexec
