[GTK] Can't build with USE_LIBHYPHEN=OFF

Building with -DUSE_LIBHYPHEN=OFF I get:

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
HYPHEN_LIBRARIES (ADVANCED)
    linked by target "WebCore" in directory /home/emilio/src/WebKit/Source/WebCore
    linked by target "WebCorePlatformGTK" in directory /home/emilio/src/WebKit/Source/WebCore
    linked by target "WebCorePlatformGTK2" in directory /home/emilio/src/WebKit/Source/WebCore

The attached patch fixes it.

This is strange. If USE_LIBHYPHEN is off, find_package(Hyphen) shouldn't be executed [1]. I'm not sure why the HYPHEN_LIBRARIES would be set to NOTFOUND if it wasn't executed.

1. See line 429 in Source/cmake/OptionsGTK.cmake

I can't reproduce this bug. Emilio, do you get the same issue with -DENABLE_CREDENTIAL_STORAGE=OFF or -DENABLE_GEOLOCATION=OFF? All work fine for me.

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]

I have a dirty tree and a build going on. I'll do some more checking once that's over and report bug. I'll also install libhyphen and try to disable it (which is what you're doing I guess, whereas I don't have libhyphen installed).

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]

Ok, I now what happened:

I don't have libhyphen-dev installed. So a first build with something like:

$ Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --gtk --cmakeargs="-DENABLE_WAYLAND_TARGET=ON -DENABLE_GLES2=ON -DENABLE_ACCELERATED_2D_CANVAS=OFF -DENABLE_MEDIA_STREAM=OFF" --makeargs="-j5"

failed, because libhyphen wasn't found but it wasn't explicitly disabled. A subsequent:

$ Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --gtk --cmakeargs="-DENABLE_WAYLAND_TARGET=ON -DENABLE_GLES2=ON -DENABLE_ACCELERATED_2D_CANVAS=OFF -DENABLE_MEDIA_STREAM=OFF  -DUSE_LIBHYPHEN=OFF" --makeargs="-j5"

failed again, because apparently one needs to remove the build dir for new configure-time flags to take effect (or maybe there's a flag to force it). Anyway, that's what confused me.

I have verified that things work fine after something like `rm -rf WebKitBuild/Release', so I'm closing this bug. Sorry for the trouble.

I'm really shouldn't need to remove the build directory between invocations. That said, I think that if you find yourself needing to do this, you can simply remove the CMakeCache.txt file and not have to build absolutely everything again.
