Could someone guide me installing qutebrowser on Ubuntu? Installing qutebrowser with tox has the process I must follow to install it, but I don't know what to do after executing:

$ tox -e mkvenv-pypi

I tried searching, but I guess its a little complicated.

You need to type:

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/qutebrowser

On Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10 it’s recommended to install qutebrowser via tox instead in order to be able to use the new QtWebEngine backend.
Assuming, you are using one of above version.

$ git clone https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser.git
$ cd qutebrowser
$ tox -e mkvenv-pypi
$ vim /usr/local/bin/qutebrowser

#!/bin/bash ~/path/to/qutebrowser/.venv/bin/python3 -m qutebrowser "$@"

/path/to/qutebrowser/ is your current directory. pwd will show you that.

$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/qutebrowser

Now you can open qutebrowser like any other applications.
