Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev

Banshee looks stalled for years and, then, I am unsure we are going to see a version ported to webkitgtk4 soon :/

Then, I would vote for disabling the optional webkit support that still relies in obsolete and vulnerable webkit-gtk:2 slot

That will also avoid the dep in obsolete libsoup-gnome (bug #565916)

Thanks
