Ah, thanks for the info. Do you know what it's needed for? The "fb"
suggests framebuffer, while I'm only targeting X11.

In the AppImage I'm testing right now I've bundled only these ones:

tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/iconengines/libqsvgicon.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqgif.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqico.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqjpeg.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqsvg.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/platforminputcontexts/libcomposeplatforminputcontextplugin.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/platforminputcontexts/libibusplatforminputcontextplugin.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/printsupport/libcupsprintersupport.so
tmp/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/xcbglintegrations/libqxcb-glx-integration.so

And it seems to work fine (tested on Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, OpenSUSE
and Arch Linux).

Do you know what the platforminputcontexts/* plugins are for?
