After setting QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=Adwaita (or -style Adwaita) Qt Quick Controls app will fail to start (testing on Text Editor example)

QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component
qrc:/qml/texteditor.qml: module "Adwaita" is not installed
This is due Qt Quick Controls using the name of global style override to search for QML module implementing the style.\
(this only happens if such style plugin exists, with QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=non-existent app will run fine)
After setting
QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=Adwaita
(or-style Adwaita
) Qt Quick Controls app will fail to start (testing on Text Editor example)This is due Qt Quick Controls using the name of global style override to search for QML module implementing the style.\ (this only happens if such style plugin exists, with
QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=non-existent
app will run fine)To allow app to run there should exist QML module for custom style
/usr/lib/qt6/qml/Adwaita/qmldir
:with at least one .qml file (using ApplicationWindow as example)
(and analogous for Adwaita-Dark)
Not sure if you actually should implement such, more of heads up to people stumbling on same problem.
