Hi,
a tip for distro packagers or anyone else interested:

You can turn a GitHub commit into a patch by adding a ".patch" to the URL,
so here are the three patches:

1.
https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/commit/37b5f49c8542c04e7aae6ded6e8ab0c6aa5f2010.patch
2.
https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/commit/48b069e89c4b63bfa4c807f2011a7d0c422c4af1.patch
 (only needed for Python 3.4 compatibility)
3.
https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/commit/3c8598f691593e5def46576402113c54b630d491.patch
