Please remove webkit-sharp from Debian testing and unstable.

webkit-sharp was already marked for auto-removal from Debian testing
because it depends on webkitgtk.

https://bugs.debian.org/790217

webkitgtk is no longer maintained and suffers from several known
security bugs. webkit2gtk is the currently maintained version.
webkit-sharp2 (which uses webkit2gtk) was recently uploaded to Debian
(unfortunately it also requires GTK3 which may be difficult for some
old projects).

webkit-sharp has one reverse dependency in Debian: blam. The removal
bug for blam is https://bugs.debian.org/877751

I got approval from the Debian maintainer Jo Shields before filing this bug.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bicha
