Actually, I do not understand why we have QPA_XCB. A same Linux binary 
should be able to run with either xcb or Wayland. I guess some parts 
should be guarded by the availability of xcb headers, and other parts 
should be guarded by plain ``if (platformName() == "xcb")''.


No idea myself. But I did fix the not starting problem.

Just to let you know, no action required.


I've seen a lot of glitches with Wayland as well.

Ah yes that is a very good point. Also "deprecated" doesn't signal whether LyX 
is planning to deprecate support (not the case) or whether it is just referring 
to the state of upstream TeX.

Then "obsolete" might be a better wording (deprecated means to me that

I think you're right, although I wonder if it will continue to work.

Honestly, I suspect, it probably means that since it works the authors
do not care. :-)

So probably the first step is to signal that to developers/writers and
to see if that it is still needed or a remnant from the past...

I am becoming nostalgic with time. :-D
