Hello, The last few days I spent a bit of time polishing the gamepad support in the WebKitGTK port (build fixes [1], solving a small timing issue [2], and enabling layout tests [3]).
My intention, if nobody is against, is to submit a patch in the next weeks to make ENABLE_GAMEPAD_SUPPORT the default. The library used in the GTK port for handling gamepads, libmanette [4], is actively maintained and available in Debian stable (Buster) [5]. As per our dependencies policy, we need to keep WebKitGTK buildable on the old stable Debian release (Stretch) until September 2021; therefore I propose to make the ENABLE_GAMEPAD_SUPPORT option selectable at build time, thus allowing Debian to continue providing WebKitGTK security updates for that release. (On the other hand, both the previous Ubuntu LTS [6] and the current one provide a package for libmanette, so all good there!)
