Description Archer Allstars 2024-03-29 07:32:11 UTC 
XCURSOR_THEME should be specified in the environment variables. Otherwise, some apps, Blender for example, would run with a super tiny mouse in Wayland session.

And from missing XCURSOR_THEME, specifying XCURSOR_SIZE wouldn't work.

See Blender issue: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/105895

It seems XCURSOR_THEME used to be specified in openSUSE. But due to issue #1157617 (https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1157617), XCURSOR_THEME was removed altogether. From my understanding, the issue #1157617 happened because of the incorrect XCURSOR_THEME value that was specified by the system script. The fix didn't correct the XCURSOR_THEME value, but removed XCURSOR_THEME altogether.
