• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description MATSUU Takuto (RETIRED) 2008-11-15 06:00:56 UTC]

www-client/kazehakase depends on net-libs/webkit-gtk, and I'd plan to mark stable kazehakase.

Webkit crashes with soup backend instead curl for me. I am not sure if I am the only one. But if not, maybe will be better remove this option from USE flags?

30 days are over, cc archs?

[Comment 4 Markus Ullmann (RETIRED) 2009-03-11 08:17:13 UTC]

Security any objections?

[Comment 5 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) 2009-03-11 10:04:27 UTC]

It'll be a challenge to provide proper security support for Webkit, as version and patch information is very limited and security bugs in their bug tracker are never opened. I tried to contact them several times (last time was last week), but they never replied.
However, we are already facing the challenge with qt-webkit which is stable as well, so no harm in stabling this ebuild now.

I tested with gimp (as this is what alpha needs webkit-gtk for) and assuming that it's needed for help display (chiefly). Works dandy, so stable on alpha. The other Gimp stuff (gegl, habl, gimp itself) will follow shortly.

Also note that no arch has been CC'ed yet, so feel free to do that and skip alpha :)

[Comment 7 Hanno Böck 2009-03-18 20:17:00 UTC]

As there seem to be no objections, cc-ing archs. Archs, please mark stable.

[Comment 8 Hanno Böck 2009-03-18 20:17:29 UTC]

Damn... Didn't intend to fix this, just wanted to add cc's...

[Comment 9 Brent Baude (RETIRED) 2009-03-19 13:10:03 UTC]

ppc done

[Comment 10 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2009-03-20 15:35:28 UTC]

webkit doesn't work on ia64/sparc anymore...

[Comment 11 Markus Meier 2009-03-20 23:27:15 UTC]

amd64/x86 stable, all arches done.
