Description Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2023-02-09 03:04:40 UTC
We would like to reduce the number of net-libs/webkit-gtk slots.

Please check if it is possible to migrate from net-libs/webkit-gtk:4 to net-libs/webkit-gtk:4.1.

This should be possible (with minor build-system patching, see https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=ea0bb7cd3b47dd02d964a5c27c010eeaea8cc8b1 for example) if net-libs/libsoup:2.4 is not pulled in by the package or any of its dependencies.
Comment 1 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2023-02-09 03:17:32 UTC
Looks like this package depends on libsoup:2.4 :(

There's an upstream issue requesting it be ported to :3.0 here: https://gitlab.com/bitseater/meteo/-/issues/170
Comment 2 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2023-02-11 08:40:10 UTC
Upstream looks a bit dead for some time... if this turns up being one of the last consumers of old libsoup, I am ok with simply treecleaning it
Comment 3 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2023-09-05 19:56:44 UTC
Looks like there's some activity upstream to port to gtk4/libadwaita, so maybe there is hope.
