This is probably a bug in python-qrencode package:

- https://stackoverflow.com/a/71019907
- https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/python-qrencode/
- https://github.com/Arachnid/pyqrencode/blob/master/qr_encode.c

(No upstream bug yet; and sorry, I can't investigate any further now.)

qreator seems dead, no activities for 2 years on the project (no commit, not replies to issue)

python-qrencode seems dead, no activities for 4 years on the project (no commit, not replies to issue)

it looks like qrencode can be dropped from AL, also the only reverse dependency of python-qrencode is qreator and qreator as no reverse dependency
