Source: keepassxc
Version: 2.7.10+dfsg1-2.1
Severity: important

I just installed keepassxc-full on my wayland system, but when I tried
to launch it, I got the following error:

```sh
diederik@bagend:~$ keepassxc
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in ""
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be 
initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

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

Aborted                    (core dumped) keepassxc
```

A StackOverflow answer pointed to the solution (and Bug #1004361)[1]:
install qtwayland5

After doing exactly that, keepassxc started successfully.

Due to this (more helpful error message), quassel-client now works too :-)

Cheers,
  Diederik

I'm closing the bug as I can no longer retrieve what exactly happened, so
I can't find out exactly where things broke.
But they were broken when I installed it.
