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

FabioLolix commented on 2024-05-23 08:40 (UTC)

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.

Pre builded (in clean chroot) package here https://sourceforge.net/projects/fabiololix-os-archive/files/Packages/ for who is interested

@jester

I dont remember for what i need this packet

It is the right time to remember why you need it before compiling for 5 hours, btw my prebuilds are on sourceforge

but qt5-webkit avoid to update icu in pacman.

This is intentional and already explained in the pinned comments

Failed at 96%

Builded fine with devtools

As this comment in upstream's issue says, this patch may fix the icu 75 issue, and icu68.patch may not needed any more. Anyone can test it?

username227 commented on 2024-05-26 14:09 (UTC)

@FabioLolix - the program is wonderwall. I updated a local version of pkgbuild to the movableink dependency instead of this package, built and attempted to run but got a segfault after about 5 seconds. A bug report is a good idea. i'll get as detailed an error log as I can and do that.

FabioLolix commented on 2024-05-25 07:04 (UTC)

i can vouch that the program that I need this library for doesn't work with the movableink version.

@username227 the mysterious program is? You can report here https://github.com/movableink/webkit/issues


/usr/bin/ld: warning: libicui18n.so.75, needed by /usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.15.13, may > conflict with libicui18n.so.74

The reason for this seems to be that qt5-webkit depends on icu as well as on qt5-base

Where I have seen that? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qt5-webkit#comment-974685

/usr/bin/ld: warning: libicui18n.so.75, needed by /usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.15.13, may conflict with libicui18n.so.74

The reason for this seems to be that qt5-webkit depends on icu as well as on qt5-base. Latter also depends on icu but is compiled for icu 75, while qt5-webkit needed to be compiled for icu 74. Hence the warning.

If this wasn't legacy code hell, you'd expect to be able to link qt5-webkit statically with anything needed from qt5-base. But the wiki warns against it. It also appears to require disabling alot of functionality through flags. So another dead end.

So if my solution works for you without crashes or ld aborts, great. Just be aware this is a very thin and brittle path now. My only application requiring qt5-webkit is blink (SIP phone client). If it breaks again, I will dump the application if qt5-webkit functionality can't be deactivated or ripped out.

Code base also is a security nightmare, don't use with untrusted inputs.

@bsdice For me it's different:

 $ldd /usr/lib/libQt5WebKitWidgets.so.5.212.0 | grep icu

    libicui18n.so.75 => /usr/lib/libicui18n.so.75 (0x0000706435800000)

    libicuuc.so.75 => /usr/lib/libicuuc.so.75 (0x0000706435606000)

    libharfbuzz-icu.so.0 => /usr/lib/libharfbuzz-icu.so.0 (0x000070643c2a6000)

    libicudata.so.75 => /usr/lib/libicudata.so.75 (0x0000706432400000)
