Hello,
I'm trying to run Instagraph (snap run instagraph) on Wayland with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland-egl set in /etc/environment.

I get the following error:

This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "wayland-egl".

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, ubuntumirclient, xcb.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
[1]    4665 abort (core dumped)  snap run instagraph

Usually I solve this problem by overriding the variable with xcb, however this does not work with Snap as it doesn't use the current shell environment. I believe it gets a brand new one from PAM.

Is it possible to include the wayland-egl plugin in the Qt5 build?

Thank you.

This is what I'm getting. I'm using Arch with Gnome (Wayland).
