Hello All,

 I have downloaded the latest WebkitGTK+ in linux & compiled & ran. The
browser looks great.

How ever our existing platform has a support for DirectFB drivers. Where
the WebkitGTK+ kit  doesnt seem to support directFB directly.

I have seen in forums , still the WebKITGT+ can be built with directFB as
backend using the cairo.  I tried to build cairo with directFBbackend ,
without X library.

But it throws me error
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kit2gtk-4.0.so.37.10.0 @CMakeFiles/WebKit2.rsp  && :
Source/WebKit2/CMakeFiles/WebKit2.dir/WebProcess/Plugins/Netscape/x11/NetscapePluginX11.cpp.o:NetscapePluginX11.cpp:function
WebKit::NetscapePlugin::platformPaint(WebCore::GraphicsContext&,
WebCore::IntRect const&, bool): error: undefined reference to
'cairo_xlib_surface_create'
lib/libWebCoreGTK.a(lib/../Source/WebCore/CMakeFiles/WebCore.dir/platform/graphics/cairo/BackingStoreBackendCairoX11.cpp.o):BackingStoreBackendCairoX11.cpp:function
WebCore::BackingStoreBackendCairoX11::BackingStoreBackendCairoX11(unsigned
long, Visual*, int, WebCore::IntSize const&, float): error: undefined
reference to 'cairo_xlib_surface_create'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Looks like still GTK depends on X libraries.

Can you please give more idea whether its possible to build the GTK+ ,
cairo + directFB alone ( excluding the xlibrary)

Appreciate the help.

Best Regards
-Edwin
