Subject: Removing QtWebKit
Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2022 14:34:24 -0500
We need to remove QtWebKit from the distro.

The upstream project says this when you go to their download page:

------
WARNING: This release is based on old WebKit revision with known
unpatched vulnerabilities. Please use it carefully and avoid visiting
untrusted websites and using it for transmission of sensitive data.
Please wait for new release from qtwebkit-dev branch to use it with
untrusted content.
------

And a bit of discussion from the oss-sec mailing list [0], quoting here:

------
QtWebKit was a rendering engine for web content released with Qt until
5.6. It was replaced with QtWebEngine after that.

Despite a community fork in 2016, nothing really happened to keep it
alive and secure.
------

And:

------
Readers of this list will likely be familiar with the regular postings
regarding WebKitGTK vulnerabilities: many of them are likely applicable
to QtWebKit too, especially the WebKitGTK-based fork
------

So, the dozens (hundreds?) of notable security bugs fixed in WebKitGTK
are totally unfixed in QtWebKit. Many of these bugs are considered
"arbitrary code execution" bugs.

And the broader context is that there won't be a future for this
package, as Qt has abandoned WebKit in favor of Chromium. This package
will not improve.

If people want to keep using QtWebKit, they can maintain it in a
channel.

-Subject: [PATCH] Let Bison generate the header directly, to fix build with
- Bison 3.7
-
-Starting with Bison 3.7, the generated C++ file #include's the header
-by default, instead of duplicating it. So we should not delete it.
-
-Remove the code to add #ifdef guards to the header, since Bison adds
-them itself since version 2.6.3.

I applied the patch and tried building all packages that are changed by
the it.

New failures:
qgis
quiterss
kdevelop
psi
qsyncthingtray
freecad

Still succeeding (there could be some run-time breakage, however):
shotcut
texmaker
nextcloud-client
gnuradio
dream
kdenlive
libksysguard
k3b
choqok
ktorrent
sonnet
kdesignerplugin
fcitx5-qt
python-pyqt

Still failing (we should remove these packages now if they don't build):
luminance-hdr
aseba
kmessagelib

For qgis, adding "-DWITH_QTWEBKIT=NO" to 'configure-flags' should work,
but I don't know what features would then be unavailable in the
application.

For freecad, the qtwebkit input can be replaced by qtdeclarative,
qtwebchannel and qtwebengine.
