Based on the wip package mostly worked on by leot@
with support by yhardy and a host of others.
pkgsrc changes:
- Add GCC_REQD to 5.0 as requested by webkit-gtk. Previously we had local
kludges/patches to disable IndexedDB support. Unfortunately in the last
releases is not so trivial to keep such patches so bump GCC_REQD as requested
by upstream to avoid further problems.
- Avoid `-DUSE_SYSTEM_MALLOC=ON'. It is no longer supported, at least on
NetBSD/amd64 due unsupported part of sysinfo() in Source/WTF/wtf/RAMSize.cpp
(add an XXX comment to document that)
- Add an `introspection' option (enabled by default) to permit to build
of webkit-gtk without gobject-introspection.
- Add patches to fix support for ppc, add support for sparc64.
From FreeBSD and OpenBSD ports.
- Address `Error sending IPC message: Message too long' that appears at least
on NetBSD via
patches/patch-Source_WebKit_Platform_IPC_unix_ConnectionUnix.cpp.
