Those hashes are not comparable: i9ir..nd (A) is the hash of the built
store item and 6n9aq..qn (B) is the hash of the derivation that builds
the store item.

But I do think it is weird if the derivation is not present on the
machine that build qutebrowser. Would you mind sending the output of
`guix time-machine ... -- build --derivations ...` from both machines?
If they return a different hash you could maybe also check the returned
`/gnu/store/...-qutebrowser-2.5.4.drv` files to see what is the
difference between them.
