Bug#1053409: qtwebengine-opensource-src: FTBFS with re2 >= 20230601 (which requires abseil)

2024-04-10 Thread Soren Stoutner
As Chromium has supported the updated RE2 since around 116, that will likely be 
included 
in the Qt WebEngine 6.7.0 release.

https://wiki.qt.io/QtWebEngine/ChromiumVersions[1]

It is unlikely to ever make it back to Qt WebEngine 5.15.x.

Currently, Qt WebEngine 6 has switched to building against the embedded copy of 
RE2, 
which can be reverted once 6.7.0 is packaged.

I think I will make a similar adjustment to Qt WebEngine 5, but without the 
plan to ever 
switch it back as Qt WebEngine 5 is reaching end-of-life.
