kiwix-desktop appimage webengine is broken on Fedora (and ubuntu 22.04)
kiwix-desktop appimage (both released (https://download.kiwix.org/release/kiwix-desktop/kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2.1.0-1.appimage) and nigthly (https://download.kiwix.org/nightly/2022-03-02/kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2022-03-02.appimage)) do not display anything in the web views (library and zim) on Fedora 35
Appimage is run with the workaround explained here https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-desktop/issues/745#issuecomment-1017530749
MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=i965 ./kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2022-03-02.appimage
Else kiwix-desktop seems to work correctly. It is possible to open a zim file (but we cannot see its content. Traces are ok.... kiwix-desktop compiled localy works fine.
Few more information :
- Last nightly version (https://download.kiwix.org/nightly/2022-03-16/kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2022-03-16.appimage) doesn't need the workaround as it as been fixed by https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-build/pull/520
- Running kiwix-destkop appimage with env var
QTWEBENGINE_REMOTE_DEBUGGING=8080start a server to debug QtWebengine but connecting to localhost:8080 show no page to inspect. - However, subprocesses
QtWebEngineProcesshave been correctly (?) started.
I've tried to trace dynamic libraries loaded if somethings seems wrong but I've found nothing relevant. Pinging @probonopd maybe he has a idea of what going on or a lead to follow.
@mgautierfr
AppImage build on local system works correctly.
Are you saying you have a working and a non-working AppImage? Then it's probably a matter of tracing/comparing the two...
Yes, I've tried to compare strace/LD_DEBUG=1/QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 QML_IMPORT_TRACE=1 but I've found nothing convincing.
But I can provide you the two appImage if you want to try. Maybe you will have a better idea of what to check/what is important.

Last nightly version (https://download.kiwix.org/nightly/2022-06-22/kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2022-06-22.appimage) have the same issue.
@mgautierfr I confirm, this is now urgent to fix this problem and make a new release.
With the new version I use: kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2.3.0.appimage the trouble looks the same. The GUI open but I can open ZIM files. (I am using Linuxmint Vanessa)The output is: $ ./kiwix-desktop_x86_64_2.3.0.appimage add widget qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 1184, resource id: 27263409, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0 qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 1544, resource id: 27263444, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0

We struggle to fix the problem. In the mean time, better use flathub/flatpak

I have opened a issue upstream (https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt/issues/554) with a small repro case without all the kiwix stack.
