Subject: [PATCH] gnu: qt-4: Disable webkit build.
Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2015 00:55:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151003225510.GA28550@debian> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 240 bytes --]

Hello,

the attached patch removes the webkit module from qt-4, in the same spirit
as removing chromium from qt-5 some time ago. My main motivation was to work
around the build failure on armhf; the patched qt-4 now builds there.

Andreas
