Hello Fernando,
I already had in the back of my mind to put up a seperate page with this
application due to the incompatibility at this stage with most other
things.
It was already done for geoclue in systemd branch.
The new directories are:
/usr/include/webkitgtk-4.0,
/usr/lib/webkit2gtk-4.0,
/usr/libexec/webkit2gtk-4.0,
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/webkit2gtk-4.0, and
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/webkitdomgtk-4.0
The library names are:
libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0.so and
libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so
The interesting thing is that with this particular version they have
created a new directory in libexec, whereas the previous version placed
the files directly in libexec, so this seems to be why we are going to be
able to install both versions side by side.
To this end, I have just finished creating a new page for this version,
however I have not yet run make validate and undoubtably changes will need
to be made as I may well not have everything up to the required BLFS
standards.
Regards,
Christopher.
