Description Massimo Burcheri 2025-03-24 22:40:59 UTC

On several machines I have noticed a broken hinting in mail-client/evolution with this webkit-gtk.
I was always able to solve it by downgrading to net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.44.4-r410.

On some machines I've also seen unpredictable crashes when fastly switching views, but can't reproduce on all machines.

Reproducible: Always

Seems to be the new Skia rendering isuues, hopefully they are fixed in newer versions
