I found a solution that works for me with the four distributions I
tested the app on. I had to exclude the following libraries:

libcairo.so.2
libdl.so.2
libfontconfig.so.1
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0
libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
libgmodule-2.0.so.0
libgobject-2.0.so.0
libgthread-2.0.so.0
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
libpango* (all the libpango stuff)
libpthread.so.0
librt.so.1
libX* (all the libX stuff)
