Hi,

Qutebrowser has a bug on OpenBSD which causes the prefers-color-scheme
setting to not work correctly (e.g., test sites show that it is not
supported, etc.). The problem is a hard-coded library filename for
libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5 in
/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/qutebrowser/misc/elf.py. I worked
with The-Compiler and a fix has been committed upstream:
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/commit/eb6f1cf9898cb431af9d2812ec40f811e37f57f0
Would it be possible to backport this into the current port? I have
tested the patch on my system and it fixes the issue. To test, simply
set colors.webpage.preferred_color_scheme = dark and load
https://www.openbsd.org/faq/. It will be displayed using the light
scheme without this fix, regardless of the above setting.

OTOH 2.2 is not too far off and updating to that won't need maintaining
a patch. I'm not sure what is the best way to proceed.

Regards,
Anindya
