For information, here's a lengthy discussion of WebKit crashes in the
Nyxt browser when built under Guix:
https://github.com/atlas-engineer/nyxt/issues/1883
TL;DR: you have to add the packages gst-plugins-good and gst-plugins-bad
if you want WebKit-based browsers to work in Guix. Otherwise WebKit
complains about lack of WebVTT handling on many Web sites and just gives
up. Adding both packages as a propagated input to WebKit should work -
but maybe some people would not be happy to have gst-plugins-bad as a
dependency, and prefer to have crashes on some Web sites.
I have no idea if this is related to the 2018 bug of course!
Cheers,
Konrad.
