For linux qt deploy there is a standalone python version that I use that work
well: https://github.com/Larpon/linuxdeployqt.py
For my application it was working more easily and was better with Qml.

Subject: Re: [Interest] QPA display system query ?
Thanks Thiago.
On Windows and Mac, there are corresponding windeployqt and macdeployqt
On *nixes, there is linuxdeployqt but that didn't work for me as it requires
very specific glibc, the author of linxudeployqt have their legitimate reason
for being very specific about runtime for their tool to work.
So I have to mimic the deployment as best as I can with regards to the QPA for
display as that done in windowsdeployqt and macdeployqt so I have something
like the following
install(FILES
${QT_INSTALL_PLUGINS}/platforms/libqxcb.so
DESTINATION
bin/platforms
)
I was hoping to factor out the hard coding of xcb in the above which I can
query.
So yes, it is like an XY problem.
Happy to hear of proper CMake way to install the required QPA for a software to
be package up and ship to user without shipping the entire Qt 6.0.0 build on
the Linux platform.
Cheers

Actually, it should be VERY uncommon. There are few applications that need a
specific windowing system, though I don't doubt there are several that work
poorly with anything that they weren't tested with.
