I don't think this is a gretl issue. Try googling "gtk3 wayland drag and drop" for a number of problem reports. At least you should be using the very latest gtk3, but even then it could be "work in progress" on the gtk side. (I for one am not at all ready to discard Xorg's X11 implementation in favor of Wayland. X11 is old, stable and extremely well tested. Wayland, not so much.)
