[Bug 1469221] Re: Move to webkit2gtk in main

 

Hi Steve,

I just reuploaded webkit to put the dependencies back to the version of
WK2 shipped by webkitgtk in main.

The status of this bug is that we aren't actively working on it,
although it is still a goal. Some of the packages are very difficult to
port, not least the email clients, and would be best done by the
upstream developers.

I put a note to myself to have another look in a few weeks. It may be
possible to demote some of the rdepends (for example evolution and
empathy) which could make the remaining set tractable for us to handle.

Cheers,
Iain

Bug description:
  Look at porting things to the new webkit2 API. Upstream has dropped
  wk1 and so webkitgtk is not receiving updates any more.

  We should aim to move webkit2gtk to main and webkitgtk to universe,
  eventually removing it once everything is ported.
