Based on discussion in #ubuntu-release, impact of reverting from 1.9.2
to 1.8 may not be as risk free as hoped.
<cjwatson> how big is the reverse dep tree anyway?
<jbicha> Mageia was also having trouble getting WebKit 1.9 to build
<infinity> 140 reverse build-deps. Not sure how far down the tree that gets
one.
<cjwatson> ow
<cjwatson> and those are all on 1.9 already?
<infinity> And not sure how many things have been rebuilt against the new ABI
(and thus need a rebuild) versus need the new API (thus needing a revert as
well) and how many wouldn't need to be touched.
<infinity> A versioned rdep scan would be more accurate for the ABI-rebuild
question, the API one's a bit tougher.
<infinity> And might just be epihany, if we're lucky.
Marking this as back to In-progress for quantal until least risk path is
figured out.
** Changed in: webkit (Ubuntu Quantal)
