I think that the main issue with webkit is that the generated files change depending on the system configuration and the consequently enabled or disabled web-facing APIs. Simon Knoll Lars wrote: On 4/26/13 3:00 AM, "Anttila Janne" wrote: >Hi, > >As you probably are aware, there has been a

Exactly. No-one benefits in making things hard for the users. I hope we can fix this for 5.1 and more for the subsequent releases. Even though there is an increasing number of pre-build binaries it should be easy and fast to build Qt when needed, as well as to choose which parts are taken in.
