Some additional information.

It seems the problem is a question of environement, and not with stumpwm.

I am trying to install Nyxt, unfortunately, I have issues with webkit. So, I 
tried to install it from source, and I face a similar issue.

Here is the link to my comment, related to the compilation issue, on the help 
request I opened initialy with the Nyxt project: 
https://github.com/atlas-engineer/nyxt/issues/1132#issuecomment-784155549

Hope this will help.
