I did take a look at what uses libQtWebKit and I think I see a potential
problem. I notice that, for instance, qt-4.8.7/bin/assistant uses
libQtWebKit, but would be built before a separate libQtWebKit.
Would there be a circular dependency here? I have not tried building
qt4 with -no-webkit yet, so I can't check it.
It's not required. You may lose some functionality, but meh - I have yet
to notice which one.
I did build qt with -no-webkit at -j10 it only took about 5 SBU, but it
takes 8 SBU with it. The only places I could find in the Qt tree were
bin/assistant and plugins/designer/libqwebview.so. Running assistant, I
can't find any differences between an instance with webkit and without.
Personally, I don't care about these apps, but for the book, I wonder if
we need to either try to accommodate the issue or mention the minor
functionality that is missing.

Well, I see that Archlinux uses some hacks to build the libqwebview.so
from the Qt4 source. I don't think we should do that.
Those are developers tools and developers developing for Qt should use
Qt5 anyways given that Qt-4.8.7 is last Qt4 release and its EOL is
expected later this year.
But a mention would be fine. libqwebview.so is a WebKit integration
module for Qt's designer app.
