As a matter of fact, it changes every week. - Although WebCore itself is largely platform-independent, significant parts of its code are not. And this is not something that can be fixed because it is like that by design. Berto -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#479851: qt4-x11: should use external webkit library
i would like to see the qt, gtk, and webkit.org webkit libraries merge at some point. does debian really want to maintain and support three (mostly) duplicate code bases? obviously this would be a goal for all of the webkit upstreams to undertake. maybe debian should make a statement or request encouraging them to do so? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Well, I can't stop them as i think it's useless, so i I reopen/reassign to webkit. I'll also add that the qt port diverges enough from original WebKit that we shouldn't replace one by the other. And having 2 sources for the Qt port is not something I want. Fortunately, they are converging (AFAICS from the changelogs, a bunch has already been pushed on trunk), but the WebKit released in Qt 4.4 will still definitely be different from WebKit trunk, though WebKit in next Qt might be more like WebKit trunk (though nothing is sure here. Trolltech might just fork again when preparing next Qt) Also, both ports (qt and gtk+) don't have the same release schedules. Actually, there hasn't been a formal release of the gtk+ port. Anyways, let's wait and see how things settle. In the meanwhile, this is wontfix. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, please discuss with upstream people and inform yourself before making assumption. There's no good reason to ship both version or to ship QtWebKIT from webkit.org. QtWebKit shipped with Qt is the version to be shipped as recommended by TT. cheers, Fathi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#479851: qt4-x11: should use external webkit library
Wait just a minute here; this should not be so readily dismissed. The libwebkit* were only recently renamed from libwebkitgtk*. Since WebKit itself is not toolkit-specific, could that renaming please be reverted? Additionally, there's no reason why the Trolltech version and the WebKit.org version cannot both be shipped, either by using a different name or the alternatives system. Qt 4.4 ships its own included copy of WebKit is because Qt must stay ABI-compatible throughout each major version. Applications that do not need that ABI stability could use the WebKit.org version. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#479851: qt4-x11: should use external webkit library
Package: qt4-x11 Version: 4.4.0~rc1-5 Severity: important qt4-xll should use the already-packaged libwebkit-1.0 library, rather than repackaging webkit separately. this has a couple major advantages. it reduces duplicated data (on the debian archives, on the user's system, and in memory). also, it reduces duplicated maintenance overhead (only one maintainer needed to support the single code base). and finally, only one package needs to be updated to fix security issues (see CVE-2008-1025 [1] where the webkit library already has the fix, but qt4-x11 remains vulnerable).
