This bug seems almost fixed in 0.3.0. 0.3.0 now the '--no-gui' option which will allow you to run it without an X server. It also attempts to provide some automatic detection but there is a bug in this line: https://sources.debian.net/src/qmidinet/0.3.0-1/src/qmidinet.cpp/#L388 Q_WS_X11 is a qt4 constant and is never defined in qt5 so the detection never works. The nearest constant in qt5 is Q_OS_UNIX, but the code should then also be modified to detect wayland displays as well (or maybe there is a QT API to do this portably?)

Jaromír, I noticed you only sent this question to the bug report number (xxx@b.d.o). Bug submitters are not automatically CCed on bug reports they submit so if you want to ask the submitter to do something, you need to CC them manually.
