This is a patched version of webkit2gtk w/ image data pasting support.

This is based on the original patch in https://github.com/ttys3/archlinux-webkit2gtk, modified to use proper filenames and support larger images.

@ttys3: For some reason pasting screenshots still does not work for me on epiphany with webkitgtk-6.0 2.52.2-1 and epiphany 50.3-1 under KDE wayland, I'm not sure why but pasting into firefox works fine.

Hi everyone, I'm the original author of this patch. It has now been merged (in a different form) into the official repository. so I think this aur pkg is not required anymore.

the first release which include this fix should be: webkitgtk-2.51.1. (https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/1f01e406b70ecb01f1e605b490badbd9c9b3f9ac/Source/WebKit/gtk/NEWS#L78)

the first stable release include this fix should be: webkitgtk-2.52.0 (https://webkitgtk.org/2026/03/18/webkitgtk2.52.0-released.html)

I failed to build the package in a clean chroot. I am getting a similar error to @ShinobiX9X from 2 years ago.

there is issue when copy paste from image from other than image viewer like gwenview, nomacs like screenshot app shutter, Spectacle, etch

@3xploiton3 This looks like an issue w/ your GPG setup? As a workaround you can try manually running gpg --import on https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/webkit2gtk/-/raw/main/keys/pgp/013A0127AC9C65B34FFA62526C1009B693975393.asc?ref_type=heads

@hemish Please see the (just) pinned comment for prebuilt packages.

hemish commented on 2023-12-23 07:20 (UTC)

Any prebuilt packages for this? This package is not in chaotic-aur due to less votes. My potato laptop just crashes while compiling this.
