I cannot start the (android) emulator64-x86. It always fails with:
--> ./emulator64-x86 -avd loli -gpu off This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "". Available platform plugins are: linuxfb, minimal, offscreen, xcb. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. zsh: abort ./emulator64-x86 -avd loli -gpu off Every forum thread I found on thw problem was to run ldd on the emulator64 and the XCB library to check for missing dependencies:

- Debian SID x64
So it seems that all dependencies are OK. How can I debug that issue further ? Any idea how can I make the emulator work ?
It turned out I can run QT with debug logging:
QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 ./emulator64-x86 -avd loli -gpu off So I it fails because of:
Cannot load library /home/svetlin/software/android/emulator/lib64/qt/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so: (/home/svetlin/software/android/emulator/lib64/qt/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so: symbol _ZN26QPlatformIntegrationPlugin6createERK7QStringRK11QStringList, version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5Gui.so.5 with link time reference)
