DON'T DO THAT !!!

You should not add 'export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb' to /etc/profile.d/

This will affect ALL SOFTWARE based on Qt (e.g. ALL KDE SOFTWARE), causing it
to run on a undesired way.

There are plenty ways of setting a variable to affect only LibreOffice, and you
should not do that inside /etc/profile.d/

Suggesting that someone do this is irresponsible and is not based on any
official documentation.

SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN variable can be set inside /etc/profile.d/ only because this
variable is used exclusively by LibreOffice.

But QT_QPA_PLATFORM variable is used by every Qt software and never should be
set inside /etc/profile.d/
