AppImage fails to start on systems that have mesa built against wayland 1.23.0
Cura Version
5.7.2
Operating System
Linux
Printer
Any
Reproduction steps
Update mesa to a version compiled against wayland 1.23.0 and run the AppImage
Actual results
When starting the AppImage a GUI popup appears saying "Could not probe OpenGL. This program requires OpenGL 2.0 or higher. Please check your video card drivers." and the CLI output is "qt.qpa.wayland: EGL not available"
Expected results
For Cura to start.
The full issue (and explanation of what and why) is documented here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/11316
To quote the mesa dev:
Any AppImage which includes an old libwayland-client.so.0 inside the image, using a newer Mesa from the host, will be affected by this - even the most simple application would fail to start.
The workaround is to extract the AppImage and delete libwayland-client.so.0 so it uses the system version, but the solution would probably be to either ship a new AppImage with an up-to-date libwayland-client.so.0, not include libwayland-client.so.0 or to include a built-in version of mesa.
Thanks!

This was bugging me on two PCs, didn't understand how there was not more noise :) It's unfortunate that using Appimage makes for this kind of issue which is the main idea to prevent Arch AUR cura-bin image is updated with a fix so one just has to reinstall it from there Otherwise flatpak version works without problems
