I have been including the qtwayland packages on my system for months now, since it always seemed like qt 5.12.4 or qt 5.13 were just around the corner. These are just super annoying bugs that I can not live with and I can not wait for the qt 5.12.4 update personally, and I think others would like to have them fixed too.

replaces #63775

QT 5.12 introduced a regression, where a QT program wouldn't show its
tray icon, if there was no tray bar during program startup. (QTBUG-73459)

QT 5.12 introduced a regression, where qtwebengine applications would
freeze in some wayland compositors if a surface from the instance was not
visible (for example having a qutebrowser window on another workspace in
sway would freeze all qutebrowser windows).

Both got fixed already in Qt 5.12.4, but according to #57042 and its
sibling issues/PRs it doesn't seem to get fixed in near future for
nixpkgs.

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
