    Description

      After upgrading our Qt build to 5.13.2, it fails to detect the conan provided xkbcommon library. It looks like the tested path is wrong and contains the "-lxkbcommon" fragment. The CI build breaks there, locally it works, because it falls back to the system wide installed xkbcommon.

      Reverting a change from 5.13.1 to 5.13.2 makes it build again:
