Although this is a very old and unsupported version of WebKitGTK+, I think this upstream patch still applies: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171612 I'll give it a try and see if it works.

Bug#900282: webkitgtk FTBFS with new ICU
package: webkitgtk version: 2.4.11-3 severity: serious Webkitgtk seems to be failing to build, failures have been seen with binnmus in Debian and Raspbian and also on the reproducible builds service. I had a look at the insanely large build log from reproducible builds and found the following error, there are likely many others. ../Source/JavaScriptCore/API/JSStringRef.cpp:86:30: error: invalid conversion from 'const UChar* {aka const char16_t*}' to 'const JSChar* {aka const short unsigned int*}' [-fpermissive] return string->characters(); It seems ubuntu already have a fix https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webkitgtk/2.4.11-3ubuntu3 I am trying to build that fix in raspbian now.
