Installation of WebKitGTK+
Installation of WebKitGTK+
Install WebKitGTK+ by running the
following commands:
mkdir -vp build &&
cd build &&
CFLAGS=-Wno-expansion-to-defined \
CXXFLAGS=-Wno-expansion-to-defined \
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-DCMAKE_SKIP_RPATH=ON \
-DPORT=GTK \
-DLIB_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/lib \
-DUSE_LIBHYPHEN=OFF \
-DENABLE_MINIBROWSER=ON \
-DUSE_WOFF2=OFF \
-Wno-dev -G Ninja .. &&
ninja
This package does not have a working testsuite. However, there is a
usable basic graphical web browser in the build directory,
build/bin/MiniBrowser. If
launching it fails, there is a problem with the build.

Note
When installing, the Makefile does some additional compiling and
linking. If you do not have Xorg in /usr, the LIBRARY_PATH and
PKG_CONFIG_PATH variables need to be defined for the root user.
If using sudo to assume root, use the -E option to pass your
current environment variables for the install process.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install &&
install -vdm755 /usr/share/gtk-doc/html/webkit{2,dom}gtk-4.0 &&
install -vm644 ../Documentation/webkit2gtk-4.0/html/* \
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/webkit2gtk-4.0 &&
install -vm644 ../Documentation/webkitdomgtk-4.0/html/* \
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/webkitdomgtk-4.0
Command Explanations
-DUSE_LIBHYPHEN=OFF: This
switch disables default automatic hyphenation implementation. You
need to install Hyphen,
if you wish to enable it (replacing OFF with ON or just removing
the switch).
-DENABLE_MINIBROWSER=ON:
This switch enables the Mini
Browser compilation and install.
-DUSE_LIBNOTIFY=OFF: Use this switch if
you do not have libnotify
installed.
-DUSE_SYSTEM_MALLOC=ON: This switch
enables building against the system installed malloc.
-DENABLE_GEOLOCATION=OFF: Use this
switch if you don't want to install GeoClue-2.5.3.
-DENABLE_GTKDOC=ON: Use this switch if
GTK-Doc-1.32 is installed and you wish to
rebuild and install the API documentation.
-DUSE_WOFF2=ON: Use this switch if the
optional package woff2 is installed.
