When asammdf's GUI won't start

When asammdf's GUI won't start

and see error messages like this:

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: vkkhrdisplay, eglfs, vnc, wayland, xcb, minimalegl, offscreen, minimal, linuxfb, wayland-egl.

Aborted

Then, use QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 to find out what is wrong.

$ QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 asammdf

And you will see what is missing. In my case, it was libxcb-cursor0 so that I installed it via apt.
