Hi,

geary depends on libwebkitgtk-3.0-0, which is deprecated in favor of
libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 (provided in Debian by webkit2gtk). geary
should be ported to the new webkitgtk version so
we can remove the old, unmaintained one.

Please try to do soon as we're going to try to remove the old webkitgtk soon.

I am filing this bug as "serious" since the old webkitgtk will not be
available in the next major stable release of Debian (codenamed
"buster").

In Ubuntu, I packaged a git snapshot of geary which has been ported to
webkit2gtk.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

On behalf of the Debian WebKit Maintainers,
Jeremy Bicha
