hi uy_moo,

here I have installed zeal and its dependencies (libxkbcommon, qt5, qt5-webkit) and it seems to work fine.

does your qt5 package contain the file libqxcb.so?

Code:

$ grep libqxcb\.so /var/log/packages/qt5-5.6.1-*             
usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so

have you logged out and logged in again after having installed qt5?

Code:

ls /var/log/packages/qt5-
qt5-5.6.1_1-x86_64-1alien       qt5-webkit-5.6.1-x86_64-1alien  
dima[~]$ grep libqxcb\.so /var/log/packages/qt5-5.6.1*
usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so

Problem was in not installed libxkbcommon package. After installation of libxkbcommon Zeal works.
