Even with USE="-soup" the configure fails. checking for LIBSOUP... configure: error: Package requirements (libsoup-2.4 >= 2.25.91) were not met: Requested 'libsoup-2.4 >= 2.25.91' but version of libsoup is 2.24.3 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBSOUP_CFLAGS and LIBSOUP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Even with no libsoup installed at all this package fails.
Maybe because webkit-gtk adopted libsoup as default backend this february.
Fixed with 1.1.7 (libsoup is now default)
