Hi Balázs, The QGIS project is aware of the removing of this important Python module (QtWebKit) from Debian testing, and for QGIS itself there have been some changes to handle this. This means some functionality is missing, but core functionality should still be ok. The OpenLayers-plugins is an external plugin. I hope in your work you can use the QuickMapServices-plugin as an alternative. In the view of future, we hope to be able to use QtWebKit again in QGIS 3.0 which will be the next version after 2.16 and be based on Qt5 and use python3... Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde
