    Description

      Deployment documentation does not make it clear about the platform plugin deployment. In the X11 deployment documentation for instance, the fact that libqxcb.so needs to be deployed is hidden with the Plug & Paint example. It needs to be made much clearer that the platform plugin is a fundamental part of all Qt GUI based applications in the documentation for all the platforms.
