qt5-webkit-movableink-git prebuild uploaded on sourceforge, thanks to MoetaYuko for the patch


About the comments; I'm starting to get really pissed off; please refrain to stating the obvious, make questions already answered, reporting already reported stuff, the icu solutions work for installed packages whenever how quirk they are, etc, etc, etc....

If you wanna post, post a patch!


I'm not a programmer but I guess webengine would be more convenient

@TheExplorer You don't say! [insert Nicals Cage meme]

If this package would never build in the future, shouldn't it be dropped in favor of qt5-webkit-movableink-git?

@oldherl have you tried to read the post before yours before posting, you should try that

Post another time that this fails to build with icu 75 and I'll no longer upload the pre-build packages, I have qt5-webkit-movableink-git ready. You have been warned.

Have been posted enough icu 74 solution too.

FabioLolix commented on 2023-12-27 15:49 (UTC)

btw, depends on libicuuc.so have been added so you are obliged to uninstall and rebuild when there is a new icu update instead of keeping a non-working qt5-webkit (which lead to other build issues)

Or read: makepkg: Improving build times.

there is a warning that it link against a different of icu respect to the version used to build qt5

$ ldd /usr/lib/libQt5WebKitWidgets.so.5.212.0 | grep icu
    libicuuc.so.74 => /opt/icu74/lib/libicuuc.so.74 (0x00007cec2d600000)
    libicui18n.so.74 => /opt/icu74/lib/libicui18n.so.74 (0x00007cec2d200000)
    libicui18n.so.75 => /usr/lib/libicui18n.so.75 (0x00007cec2b800000)
    libicuuc.so.75 => /usr/lib/libicuuc.so.75 (0x00007cec2b606000)
    libicudata.so.74 => /opt/icu74/lib/libicudata.so.74 (0x00007cec29800000)
    libicudata.so.75 => /usr/lib/libicudata.so.75 (0x00007cec27400000)

Indeed, looks like it is linking to system ICU as well as ICU in /opt. Needs one more patch to clean up that particular mess. Let's see who comes up with something, I won't do it.

@oldherl and in addition to what people said, i can vouch that the program that I need this library for doesn't work with the movableink version.

FabioLolix commented on 2024-05-24 12:39 (UTC)

is a version of ICU 74.2 which installs to /opt/icu74 and includes everything to compile qt5-webkit.

btw done that some days ago, there is a warning that it link against a different of icu respect to the version used to build qt5

@bsdice your builds worked great. 👍

mozo commented on 2024-05-24 12:10 (UTC)

@FabioLolix Thank you, it installs with no problems at all!

@oldherl I'm not a programmer but I guess webengine would be more convenient: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebenginewidgets-qtwebkitportingguide.html (you can choose any Qt version there).

Like, for example, this awesome dictionary: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/goldendict-webengine-pr-git Some cool guy just dropped webkit and switched to webengine.

Also, Debian ships goldendict-webengine. I guess, it's one of the reasons to think about.

@LarryDave the movableink fork pratically don't have a stable release, have or had least one incompatibility, despite the number of commits the builds were problematic for some time (six months since I've first seen it I vaguely remember), yet is not excluded in the future

LarryDave commented on 2024-05-23 21:19 (UTC)

The GitHub page for this package says:

Code in this repository is obsolete. Use this fork: https://github.com/movableink/webkit

Maybe this package can use that? Would it help? I'm just asking. It's 27006 commits ahead of this package.
