*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
Public security bug reported:
When you update Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with webkit2gtk 2.40, please consider
enabling the GTK4 build (webkitgtk-6.0).
This would be useful for snapping GTK4 apps that use webkit. The most
prominent example is epiphany.
On the other hand, enabling the GTK4 build will lengthen the build time.
The Ubuntu 22.04 LTS webkit2gtk package is building itself twice, once
for 4.0 (gtk3 + libsoup2) and once for 4.1 (gtk3+ libsoup3). This
request is for a third build: 6.0 (gtk4 + libsoup3).
I'm marking as Security since the Security Team does most of the
webkit2gtk uploads for Ubuntu stable releases.
