I just tried to compile the webkit kpart with KDE 4.2.2 from Debian and it
works without problems. You have to do the following. Create a directory for
the sources, e.g. /usr/local/src/kde4 or ~/kde4. cd to that directory and do
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/playground/libs/webkitkde/
It will create a directory webkitkde with the sources. Do
cd webkitkde
and create a build directory:
mkdir build
Go to that directory and run cmake:
cd build
cmake ..
If you get error message, you have to install the appropriate headers (you can
find them using apt-cache search package name. You need to install the packages
that end with -dev). When cmake finishes without errors, run make:
make
Next you have to install the kpart:
make install
This might not work as normal user. If it does not work, do it as root. The
webkit kpart will be installed to /usr/local. Next you have to restart KDE.
Then open a page in konqueror. You can switch engines with
View -> View Mode -> {KHTML, WebKit}
This only works if a page is open.
If you want to set the WebKit part as default, run:
'keditfiletype text/html'
and move "WebKit (webkitpart)" in the "Embedding" tab to the top.
For me, youtube did not show any videos with the webkit kpart (it does with
khtml).
Have fun,
Michael
