This is a known issue in Tails 5.8 with all Qt apps. https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/19326
to make the fix permanent, you should turn on dotfiles in the Persistent Storage application, then enter the following commands in terminal
echo 'export QT_QPA_PLATFORM="wayland;xcb"' | tee -a $HOME/.bashrc
followed by
cp $HOME/.bashrc /live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.bashrc
I just had to write this automation for the sister project https://github.com/BenWestgate/Bails
Possible fix When changing the environment variable manually via the terminal before each run, the issue is resolved. Bitcoin core gui is loaded and the application works as expected. Although, a warning persists in the terminal window (see screenshot).
Questions Unsure if this issue is related to Tail OS, Bitcoin Core or this repo.
What config files do I need to edit to that make my fix permanent?
