We have sugar-build use packages for certain packages on Fedora 19 that
aren't available on Fedora 18 already (ragel, node, npm), so why not
just add webkitgtk to the list as well? It makes sense enough to me,
provided we're pulling a compatible version.
To that end, I've already submitted a pull request. ;-)

I was seeing the same :)
Yes, would be nice for distro F19 to use the installed webkitgtk. Thanks!

Btw, I think we are currently triggering a webkitgtk build after every
pull, even if nothing is really changed (I blame webkitgtk stupidity
for that at least partially :P). I will fix that.

Hey,
It seems like building webkitgtk is a bit of a pain for many people. I
would like people feedback on how bad of an obstacle it really is and
about a couple of possible solutions:
1 Have buildbot generate snapshots of the base system dependencies
which most people are unlikely to want to modify anyway and upload
those. It would probably be a system.img file which you would put in
your sugar-build directory. With that file present, the external sugar
dependencies would not be downloaded and built at all.
2 Officially support Fedora 19, disable the webkitgtk build there and
suggest people for which building webkigtk is too much to use Fedora19.
Thoughts? Would you use 1/2 if it was available?
