Core dump under Wayland

Open juxuanu opened this issue 4 years ago • 6 comments

Trying to start Cadmus under Wayland results in this:

This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "wayland"
in "".

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
[1]    19775 abort (core dumped)  cadmus

Other Qt apps work. I have the environment variable QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland set.

Out of interest, have you tried running from source? This may be due to required libraries for Wayland not being included in the app image - at least that's my best guess.

No, I have not. Sorry, I don't have the computer with Wayland available to me anymore. I can't test further. I installed it using the Arch's User Repo (AUR)'s package cadmus-deb that uses, logically, the .deb

Sway user here, setting QT_QPA_PLATFORM="" fixed this for me!

This is the case both in the binary version as well as in the AppImage

Good to know. If others can reproduce this, we may have found a fix.
