Description Michael Catanzaro 2016-09-14 05:02:32 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.

Note: I presume perl-Gtk2-WebKit is a bindings package specifically intended to provide WebKit bindings for GTK+ 2 bindings, so there's nothing to be done here except retire the package. This bug is just to serve as a heads-up.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2017-02-28 10:17:19 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle.
Changing version to '26'.
Comment 2 Petr Pisar 2017-03-27 12:38:12 UTC 
webkitgtk was retired in F27. It has a maintainer again, but I do not believe it will get any new build.

Please retire perl-Gtk2-WebKit in Fedora ≥ 27.
Comment 3 Remi Collet 2017-03-28 09:59:28 UTC
