    Description

      Ran the command:

      ./qtbase/examples/widgets/wiggly/wiggly

      And saw the error:

      Failed to load platform plugin "xcb". Available platforms are:

      Aborted

      This issue occurred for any example application I tried

      In the build I see:
      ./qtbase/plugins/platforms/libxcb.a

      I suspect that the plugin loading logic is not correct for static builds ATM.
