When I tested the netbsd-9 packages on netbsd-10 I shut down all other
daemons (dbus, avahidaemon etc), and lxqt started without issue. I
left them shut down when I switched back to netbsd-10 packages and
tested lxqt-panel-1.3.0nb3, and again it started without delay or
issue. One data point only, but a suggestive one...
