`-min` does not minimize wallet loading dialog #748

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current behaviour

A user on the Bitcoin stackexchange reported that starting -min still results in the Loading wallets dialog box appearing.

Expected behaviour

-min should minimize all startup dialogs.

Steps to reproduce

Start with -min with wallets automatically loaded (presumably, I haven't tried yet)

A user on IRC says that this was not fixed in 26.0, although they are now using KDE rather than XFCE.

Edit: I am not able to replicate the reported issue.

Was able replicate in 26.0, needed to use the release built binaries. I guess something in the way we build qt is causing this?

Confirming that the issue still exists for the release/Guix built bitcoin-qt.

The static Qt in depends misses GTK+ support. However, I'm not sure if it is the cause of the issue.
