Describe the bug

When attempting to run the Cutter AppImage (version 2.3.4) on my Linux system, the application fails to start. The error messages indicate missing platform plugins, specifically the "wayland" plugin, and rendering issues related to InvalidMatrix.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download the AppImage file for Cutter (version 2.3.4).
  2. Make the file executable using chmod +x Cutter-v2.3.4-Linux-x86_64.AppImage.
  3. Run the AppImage using ./Cutter-v2.3.4-Linux-x86_64.AppImage.
  4. The application does not start, and the following error messages are displayed:
kf.windowsystem: Could not find any platform plugin

This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

What have I tried?
yay -S qt5-wayland
