This dependency was picked up mostly by accident; upstream specifies a dependency on qdarkstyle in setup.py so when python3-qdarkstyle is installed at build-time, dh_python3 automatically translates the requires.txt entry into a Depends: in the binary package. Electrum is perfectly functional without this, though (it will just give you a warning if you try to activate dark mode), so I will filter the dep out at build time.
