No,; but I used to regularly get this:

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland 
to run on Wayland anyway.

If I comply to the request, I get this:

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland 
to run on Wayland anyway.
QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread

I must run
  XDG_SESSION_TYPE= QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland lyx-2.4.0dev

to get rid of the first message.

I never get the last message that you mention.

Debian bullseye, QT 5.15.2

Should I try to compile with QT6 ?
