Description of problem: webkitgtk-devel doesn't contain the GIRs/typelibs so that WebKit is unable to import in Seed app. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): webkitgtk-devel-1.3.10-1.fc14.i686 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install seed-devel and webkitgtk-devel 2. Walk through Seed Tutorial on http://people.gnome.org/~racarr/seed/tutorial-standalone/tutorial.html or file:///usr/share/doc/seed-doc-2.31.91/tutorial/tutorial.html in seed-doc-2.31.91-2.fc14.noarch. 3. Run the final version of the tutorial code on http://people.gnome.org/~racarr/seed/tutorial-standalone/2.js or file:///usr/share/doc/seed-doc-2.31.91/tutorial/2.js Actual results: ** (seed:25439): CRITICAL **: Line 3 in ./hellogtk.js: GIrepositoryError Typelib file for namespace 'WebKit' (any version) not found Expected results: WebKit is imported successfully and the demo could run. Additional info: The searching in upstream mailing list suggests it might due to the packaging. http://mail.gnome.org/archives/libseed-list/2010-April/msg00001.html
According to the spec file, enabling GIRs/typelibs needs gobject-introspection >= 0.9.5, while F-14 gobject-introspection is still 0.9.3 and I don't expect that gobject-introspection will be upgraded on F-14 (Kevin?)
Correct. We need newer gobject-introspection. ;( If you can get that upgraded I can build webkitgtk with it. Unfortunately, that might require a ton of churn in a stable release. ;(
