Bug 573094 – dev-ruby/ruby-webkit2-gtk package needed

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pacho Ramos 2016-01-27 10:23:14 UTC]

We need to package this:
https://github.com/ruby-gnome2/ruby-gnome2/tree/master/webkit2-gtk

For compat with webkitgtk4, that is the webkit-gtk that should be used and, then, it would be nice if this could then let us to kill dev-ruby/ruby-webkit-gtk and dev-ruby/ruby-webkit-gtk2 that are relying on obsolete webkit-gtk slots, that have multiple security issues

Thanks

Do I understand correctly that this should depend on net-libs/webkit:4 ?

I've now added dev-ruby/ruby-webkit2-gtk with that dependency.

Yes, this are the bindings for :4 slot, while the others are for slots :2 and :3 that should be killed whenever we are able to ;)

Thanks for the fast fix!

I don't see any dependencies on the other versions other than ruby-gnome2 (which is a convenience dependency to get "all" packages). Should be no problem to update the dependency in ruby-gnome2 to ruby-webkit2-gtk only.

dev-ruby/ruby-gnome2-3.0.8-r1 now only depends on ruby-webkit2-gtk (the webkit-gtk:4 binding). Once this is stable we can drop the obsolete webkit bindings of ruby-gnome2.
