Description Marcin Lewandowski 2012-05-17 15:02:20 UTC 
On ubuntu 12.04, default install of valac 0.16, WebKit bindings depend on GTK2, not GTK3.

/usr/share/vala-0.16/vapi/webkit-1.0.deps contents are 

atk
gio-2.0
cairo
pango
gdk-pixbuf-2.0
gdk-2.0
gtk+-2.0
libsoup-2.4


instead of

atk
gio-2.0
cairo
pango
gdk-pixbuf-2.0
gdk-3.0
gtk+-3.0
libsoup-2.4
Comment 1 Maciej (Matthew) Piechotka 2012-05-19 07:35:41 UTC 
You want webkit-3.0 instead of webkit-1.0 (the lack of bindings for 3.0 stands though - both webkit and webkit2).

% ldd /usr/lib/libwebkitgtk-*.so | grep -P '(libgtk|webkit)'
/usr/lib/libwebkitgtk-1.0.so:
	libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0x00007f43705fd000)
/usr/lib/libwebkitgtk-3.0.so:
	libgtk-3.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libgtk-3.so.0 (0x00007f34549a9000)
Comment 2 maxim.suraev 2014-04-02 14:24:58 UTC 
Same applies to vala 0.22
Would be nice to see gtk-3 dependency by default alongside with webkit-3.0 - version 1.0 will be deprecated soon enough.
Comment 3 Björn Harrtell 2014-04-06 15:44:49 UTC 
Would also like to see this resolved. Workaround described at https://mail.gnome.org/archives/vala-list/2011-July/msg00006.html seem to work, but seem like a hack that shouldn't be used in the main vala source.
