net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.32.0 works on armv7, should be okay to push to upstream "stable".

Um, what are you talking about? No such version exists in ::gentoo.
Comment 3 Steve Arnold archtester gentoo-dev 2021-04-25 23:32:20 UTC
I had to make one from net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.30.5 due to arm compile error and 2.32.0 is listed as "stable" upstream with the CVE fix...
Comment 4 Jason Lethbridge 2021-05-16 23:41:26 UTC
"net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.32.1" wants ">=dev-libs/glib-2.67.1:2" but `ebuild webkit-gtk-2.32.1.ebuild merge` completes and appears to run without error on amd64 with "dev-libs/glib-2.66.7"

Thanks!
Comment 7 Jernej Jakob 2021-06-24 11:26:01 UTC
I have ebuilds for 2.33.1 and 2.33.2 in my personal overlay: https://github.com/jjakob/gentoo-overlay/tree/master/net-libs/webkit-gtk
What's the process for getting them merged into the official repo? Become a proxy maintainer and submit PRs?
Comment 8 Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev 2021-06-24 12:03:22 UTC
2.33.x are early unstable development versions and do not belong in the tree in ~arch. Not sure what this has to do with the security ticket here though.

I apologise, I missed that 2.32.1 was already stable in the tree, since the bug is still marked as in progress.
