nerdopolis - Thanks for the correction on the QT5 installation. I was able to run my test. I love what you did because I can do "compile tests" on the live distro and compare RBOS behavior to my Wayland development target. I am using the vanilla Weston desktop you provided because that is what is installed on our Wayland development target.
What hardware (CPU and GPU) are you using? I want to know because I see a lot of display issues (double cursor, repeating login prompts, cursor leaving behind trails as if the background is not being restored) on the live distro but I think that is my problem because of my choice of hardware (Dell laptops of various vintage) and my lack of Wayland "configuration sophistication". I didn't build the Wayland/OS install I am testing, I am just using it. I want to give helpful feedback to the developer that is responsible for the Wayland installation, and your distro is helping me to do that.

This Wayland Live CD already has QT5 installed, but it's in /opt (not /usr). The package name in dpkg is qt5-rbos.
