Some Qt programs bypass xkb.

[A Former User]

Anki and qutebrowser seem to ignore xkb on my gentoo linux system. I pulled up their dependencies.

It seems qt is involved, but most qt applications including krita and keepassxc respect xkb settings. I don't understand why anki and qutebrowser ignore xkb settings.
