Control: forwarded 866655 https://bugs.launchpad.net/variety/+bug/1701724
Hi Jeremy, To speed up the process, is there any simple porting guide between WebKitGTK 3 and WebKit2GTK 4? The only working feature in Variety using WebKit at the moment is Facebook integration, which is difficult for me to test because I don't feel comfortable with programs posting to Facebook on my behalf. I've forwarded the issue upstream and I'll see how they respond; if there's nothing within a week or two I will probably just patch out Facebook integration for the time being.
