The gtk port has several external dependencies as any other port and indeed most of them are not needed for building JSC. However I don't see those dependencies being a barrier, mainly because we build them using a jhbuild environment, so even if your distro don't provide the required dependencies you could build them with Tools/Scripts/update-webkitgtk-libs. Do you have issues doing that? BR _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
