QtCreator doesn't start on Wayland

2.2k views Asked by At

I'm using Wayland session on Debian 11 (sid). Installed QtCreator from their website via .sh script but it doesn't launch. When running from '~/Qt/Tools/QtCreator/bin' directory in the terminal I get:

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway. 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

Tried

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland ./qtcreator

and

export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland 
./qtcreator

and

./qtcreator --platform=wayland

Also tried installing qt 6.0.3 and 5.15.

No luck, qtcreator doesn't launch.
