openSUSE are doing it, we should probably too. I've begun to set it default off in my packages whenever it was the option. Last commit in upstream repository happened 15 months ago.

Are you aware of https://github.com/annulen/webkit/commits/qtwebkit-5.212 ? That's where most of effort re webkit is going right now as far as I can tell. Also, I've chatted with an opensuse maintainer, he's not aware of any plans to ditch qtwebkit.

Yes, we're aware. That repo had been almost dead for more than a year until development restarted less than a month ago.

Upstream seems relatively active these days... "annulen Merge branch 'qtwebkit-stable' into qtwebkit-5.212 … 5a4cfb5 11 days ago" Would be nice to get a bump to fix the build with Qt 5.15...

Hey, I didn't say it was safe/secure, just active! :) (QtWebEngine probably isn't either. I tracked the Magellian vulnerability for over a year, and it didn't get fixed before I gave up.) > (In reply to Luke-Jr from comment #8) > > Would be nice to get a bump to fix the build with Qt 5.15... > Builds fine, not one bug recorded wrt, file one if you got one. Still investigating nature of it. It may simply be that qtwebkit needs rebuilding after upgrading Qt. (and didn't automagically)
Please limit the chatter to QtWebKit, thanks. (In reply to Luke-Jr from comment #10) > Still investigating nature of it. It may simply be that qtwebkit needs > rebuilding after upgrading Qt. (and didn't automagically) This is tracked in bug 661052.
