sddm won't start without xcb-util-renderutil on my laptop with Intel video. It only shows black screen. Installing that package solves the issue. Traced with strace.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Works for me
Additional comments about closing:  no one could duplicate this, and sddm currently has a dependency list qt5-declarative ==> qt5-xmlpatterns ==> qt5-base ==> xcb-util-renderutil so it is a moot issue

Works fine here, xcb-util-renderutil is not installed. Maybe optional?

Not sure, but definitely doesn't work for me on all qt5 applications with rendering.

You said "Not sure, but definitely doesn't work for me on all qt5 applications with rendering."
Are you saying you have rendering problems on qt5 applications AND sddm won't launch? In this case it could be related to qt5 rendering and not solely sddm. Can you please test for me if the issue still exists where you get a black screen if you don't have that package?
