At the moment, just looking to install the requisite library.

Perhaps need to install the xcb-util-cursor package?

You installed the wrong library. It's looking for `libxcb-cursor.so.0` which is in the `libxcb-cursor0` package (hence the name). So `apt install libxcb-cursor0` would have sorted it. https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=lunar&arch=any&mode=exactfilename&searchon=contents&keywords=libxcb-cursor.so.0

Maybe I was just downloading the wrong feather wallet file:

which seems to run fine. Still don't know how to install that specific library, however. That being said, I was only asking about the library in the context of launching this wallet.

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
