Description Michael Catanzaro 2022-10-17 17:41:37 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1849096 +++

1. Proposed title of this feature request

[RFE] Add wpebackend-fdo package to RHEL 8


2. What is the nature and description of the request?

We need to add wpebackend-fdo to RHEL 8


4. Why do we need this? (List the business requirements here)

If we don't add wpebackend-fdo, we will be unable to update to WebKitGTK 2.40 and security updates for WebKitGTK will end after March 2023.


5. How would we like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

Um... wpebackend-fdo is available, and I can build WebKitGTK against it.


6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how we can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

Can build WebKitGTK without using -DENABLE_WPE_RENDERER=OFF. Rendering https://webkit.org/blog-files/3d-transforms/poster-circle.html still works.


7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?

This package is already in RHEL 9.


8. Timeline and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?

- RHEL 8.8


10. List any affected packages or components.

- WebKitGTK, libwpe, wpebackend-fdo
