Thanks, installing that does indeed get pcmanfm-qt to launch, although
the right click menu and file menus seem to be invisible! I had to open
up a pcmanfm-qt without this env var to see how to get to preferences
blindly. (alt-e alt-e will open edit then preferences). The missing
right click menu is even worse since what's under the menu can vary,
especially the "open with" menu.

Also, should this have been a dependency of something? I definitely
didn't install it manually on postmarketOS (alpine-based).
