Calamares Installer Crashing in Qt5QuickWidget

When attempting to install Manjaro 22.0.1 from bootable USB (UEFI, secure boot disabled) using calamares, I get a crash after clicking “Install now”.

I’ve tried both minimal and full installs (checksums OK), open source and proprietary drivers.

I decided to try installing EnveadourOS. The calamares installer worked first time. And just like that, I have distro-hopped!

This can be our animated slideshow not working on your hardware for some odd reason. endeavouros seems not to have this in their slideshow, hence you’re able to install it.
