I'll kick off a build and see. If it doesn't just work, I'm inclined
to disable this at the same time as we do wxwidgets3.0.
If we revert the change which added this package apart from one hunk in
debian/rules then we get a package set which simply doesn't have
wx.html2 (rather than a broken one), which seems good so I've uploaded.
I would think the person who was trying to use wx.html2 might not agree
with that.
Yeah, I would say we should just do this when wxwidgets3.0 loses its webkit1
dependency (or preferably this problem just goes away when switching
wxwidgets to GTK+ 3).
I wouldn't rely on a switch to GTK+ 3 happening for buster - I did a bit
of work towards it, and upstream are responsive to reports of bugs under
GTK+ 3 (at least when they can reproduce them) but unfortunately I don't
really have the time to drive this forwards currently, and nobody else
seems to be actively working on it.
