Shall I proceed with this temporary solution? The only r-dep of openjfx
is netbeans which does not use openjfx at runtime so far. Someone
interested in sponsoring this?

The web view based on WebKit is an important feature of JavaFX, it would
be sad to disable it. I tried upgrading openjfx to the version 8u60 but
I got another build failure :( Leave me some time to investigate this
further.

:( Too bad upgrading doesn't work. However I wouldn't worry too much
about this WebKit feature as long as there is only one
reverse-dependency and plenty of time until the next stable release.
Just disabling it for the time being would give us more breathing space
and would also prevent the removal of netbeans and openjfx from testing.

If nobody else has any objection, I can sponsor this.

I have pushed two commits. The first one implements the minimum
requirements to compile openjfx with gradle 2.5. Unfortunately I haven't
found a way to compile with WEBKIT yet. When I set COMPILE_WEBKIT =
false in debian/gradle.properties, building from source works again.

The question is: Can we temporarily disable the WEBKIT feature and build
without it for a while until upstream catches up with gradle? (They
already have a patch for 2.x but that doesn't seem to work with WEBKIT)

Regards,

Markus
