I've updated libwebkit in the testing repo to a recent nightly snapshot. It requires new libsoup that also adds cookie support. This introduced a .so name bump. I've already updated midori. Maybe there are more rebuilds required. Please check all packages that (opt)depend on libwebkit. -Andy

The other packages that (opt)depend on libwebkit are gimp and gimp devel. I'll rebuild them if necessary. There's also community/lib/perl-gtk2-webkit but that'll need to wait for libwebkit to hit extra.

Gimp and gimp-devel needs to be rebuilt but a simple rebuild doesn't fix the plugin. The plugin crashes with the following error message on the terminal: GLib-ERROR **: The thread system is not yet initialized. aborting... I haven't looked into it any further. The plugin is only used to use the gimp help browser but a regular web browser can also be used to view the help files so it's not critical. BTW, I've noticed that you are using the svn source version in the pkgrel so we have pkgrel=0.41443 which looks quite weird. Why don't you just use the version as stated in configure.ac for the package, i.e. 1.1.1-1? It seems to be sufficient IMO. If you really want to also have the svn version there, put it in the pkgver: 1.1.1.41443-1. The pkgrel is supposed to be used for the PKGBUILD version, not the package's source version.

Agreed. Additionally, we never fully "agreed" on this whole decimal pkgrel thing, and I, for one, find it annoying to see "foobar-1.2.3.4-1.3.7" - it's a major wtf moment. Not only should the pkgrel reflect _our_ version, not upstream's version, but we should try to stick to integers to avoid confusion, and it's not like we're going to run out of integers any time soon

I've tried with gimp svn but it has the same problem. Google didn't help. I've submitted a bug report upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=577024
