Description Michael Catanzaro 2016-09-14 04:34:03 UTC
The webkitgtk package will be removed from rawhide after Fedora 26 is branched due to the high number of unfixed security vulnerabilities. You must remove this dependency or your package will not be present in Fedora 27.

Please refer to [1] for a FAQ on this matter and be advised that for some packages this may require a substantial amount of work.

Just a side-note: There is no "claws-mail-plugins" package anymore. All plugins are built from within the claws-mail package, which obsoletes/replaces the claws-mail-plugins package.

I'd recommend removing the affected plugins now. You don't want all of claws-mail to be dropped because of one or two plugins.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle.
Changing version to '26'.

Last warning... webkitgtk removal is planned for next week.
