One of the options in the configure script provided with the Qt source is the the ability to bundle the XCB platform plugin during the build. That is, when we run ./configure --help, we see the following:
-bundled-xcb-xinput Use bundled XInput2 support [auto]

This seems to be useful as it avoids the dreaded Could not find the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" error message when distributing a statically built binary.

Is it possible to enable this flag during the build?

qt6 recipe is not using configure, but cmake, so we would have to use -DFEATURE_system_xcb_xinput=ON definition according to https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/cmake/configure-cmake-mapping.md, but I don't think this would solve the platform thing anyway, because this flag is only about xinput, not the platform plugin
