2.2.4 测试运行

calibre

如果遇到如下提示，

qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
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, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

Aborted (core dumped)

请使用如下设置解决，

echo "export QT_QPA_PLATFORM='offscreen'" | tee /etc/profile.d/QT_QPA.sh
source /etc/profile

再次尝试运行，

calibre

注：按下【Ctrl+Z】结束程序
