>Description:
It is not possible to build the port. The source is not available.
The link in the Makefile just points to a web page. Which tells you
to checkout the source from github. I spoke with the author, and he
told me to try many different things, in an effort to use version
1.6.2. But thus far, none have resulted in a usable version.
This port should probably be marked BROKEN, or be reverted to the
previous (working) version 1.4.4.

Thank you for all your time, and consideration.

>How-To-Repeat:
attempt to make www/qupzilla (1.6.1)

>Fix:
Use version 1.4.4 (if available on your system)
