#52400: Update gimp ports to use webkit2-gtk --------------------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: jeremyhu@… | Owner: devans@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: removal Port: gimp2 gimp2-devel gimp3 | --------------------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by devans@…): gimp2 and gimp2-devel are based on gtk2 and could not be ported to webkit2-gtk without porting to gtk3 first. There is an upstream git branch that is working on the gtk3 update targeting a gimp 3.0 release some time in the future. gimp3-devel is a port of this branch which currently uses webkit-gtk3. But looks like gtk3 support is a ways off yet. The good news is that webkit-gtk is only used to implement a help browser which can be disabled using --without-webkit. The help browser is conditionally built based on the variant +help_browser. If webkit-gtk is removed, the easiest solution is to just remove this variant from the ports. Without the help browser enabled, the gimp ports use an external web browser to display online html docs so nothing lost really. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52400#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
