Do you agree? Hello Helmut, thanks for the bug report. I went over all build dependencies and identified the ones that can be removed, including the ones that you mention plus a couple of additional ones. Full details here: https://salsa.debian.org/webkit-team/webkit/-/commit/8809b21d5940ebc25b4c0e3b58436fb90ff5107d Ping me if you need me to make a Debian release with this, otherwise it will ship with the next upstream version of WebKitGTK (likely withing the next few weeks). Thanks! Berto
