Description Alejandro Vargas 2020-01-21 09:38:14 CET

In files /etc/profile.d/60qt5.csh and /etc/profile.d/60qt5.sh please remove QT_PLUGIN_PATH

This is a bug that prevents programs using different version of QT to run (like appimages). 

See https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/deployment-plugins.html that says:

Note: Do not export QT_PLUGIN_PATH as a system-wide environment variable because it can interfere with other Qt installations.

You have already reported this https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25038#c2
Sorry it got overlooked, perhaps wrong assignee (now changed).
I have copied the Description above to that bug as a reminder, and enhanced its title; and mark this one as a duplicate.
