I'm forwarding this, then, to the devel list. As I said, we've seen some
issues with Wayland, though my sense is that these are Qt issues,
mostly, not LyX issues (though they become LyX issues, since we depend
upon Qt).

If you have an option to try other Qt versions, that also could be helpful.

I think, I've found cause of this Wayland error: 
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-81952
Behaviour of my Lyx in Wayland is exactly the same and error too when launching 
Lyx from terminal: "xdg_wm_base@23: error 2: xdg_popup was destroyed while it 
was not the topmost popup The Wayland connection experienced a fatal error"
So bug was fixed in Qt 5.15.1

P. S. I was forced to enroll to lyx-devel mailing list, because my answer to 
the last mail  wasn't delivered: lyx-devel list replied with "non-members
are not permitted to post to this list", that's normal, but my replay wasn't 
delivered to lyx-users list and R. K. Heck too.
