Are the qt4 webkit and qt5 webkit too different that we can't use a symlink for qt4's webkit to point to qt5's webkit?
That way we could (theoretically) bridge the gap temporarily until qt5 becomes more stable. Ian, what are your thoughts on that? I mean I know its hacky but could it possibly work?
