Comment (by fo):
I created this so we do not forget. Might have misunderstood. But we have:
[https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-gtk/2015-April/002343.html]
{{{
After some fixes to the CMake build system and the addition of
automatic hyphenation support to WebKitGTK+, libhyphen and libnotify
are required for all bots that run build-webkit. Please double-check
that you have these packages (and their development packages)
installed to avoid EWS and buildbot downtime. Thanks!
}}}
I don't know what ''buildbot'' means.
[https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-gtk/2015-May/002350.html]
{{{
[webkit-gtk] WebKitGTK+ 2.9.1 released!
...
What's new in the WebKitGTK+ 2.9.1 release?
===========================================
- New disk cache implementation when using the network process.
- Web inspector UI has been redesigned.
- Add support for automatic hyphenation using libhyphen when it's
available.
- Fix network redirection to a non HTTP destination.
}}}
I never use nor used automatic hyphenation personally nor for
publications, but if it exists, some people must like it.
This library is apparently used with hunspell and can be found at
[http://sourceforge.net/projects/hunspell/files/Hyphen/]
My first thought was that it would be immediately needed for the next
micro version, but probably it is for the next minor. And apparently
optional.
Perhaps we could close the ticket, but keep it in mind for not missing it,
depending on the new minor?
Latest is
