[qutebrowser] qutebrowser fails to start on Ubuntu 22.04

[Luí­s Moreira de Sousa]

Hi all,

I have qutebrowser installed on Ubuntu 22.04 from the multiverse repository. This morning it fails to start, can no longer find the Qt plugin (log below). I tried re-installing but the problem prevails. Any hints or work-arounds?

Thank you for reading.

$ qutebrowser

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.
