Please unblock package wpewebkit webkit2gtk was unblocked last month, testing has the most recent stable version and we will provide security updates during the lifetime of bullseye, as we already did during buster. wpewebkit is another official port of webkit. It's maintained by the same team, follows a very similar release schedule and numbering system, shares most of the code and almost all CVEs fixes apply to both ports. Because of this it won't take me too much effort to prepare security updates for wpewebkit so the Debian security team is proposing that we also provide them. If we do this we should unblock the package and put the latest stable version in testing. At the moment the only user of wpewebkit in Debian is cog, which is a simple, single-window web browser, developed and released by the same team. So we should also unblock cog and the two other libraries that are part of the wpewebkit releases: libwpe and wpebackend-fdo (I don't know if you need separate bugs to unblock those). If we don't do this then it's probably a good idea to mention in the release notes that wpewebkit is not covered by security updates. unblock wpewebkit/2.32.1-1
