Enchant-2.1.1 was recently released and it removed some deprecated APIs which WebKitGtk is still using. Trying to build WebKitGtk-2.18.0 against Enchant-2.1.1 results in following error: /home/armin/src/pacman/pkgbuild/webkitgtk/src/webkitgtk-2.18.0/Source/WebCore/platform/text/enchant/TextCheckerEnchant.cpp:132:9: error: use of undeclared identifier 'enchant_dict_free_suggestions' enchant_dict_free_suggestions(dictionary, suggestions); Refer to commit [1] for details. Easy bug fix (taken from [1]): sed -i "s#enchant_dict_free_suggestions#enchant_dict_free_string_list#g" Source/WebCore/platform/text/enchant/TextCheckerEnchant.cpp [1] https://github.com/AbiWord/enchant/commit/744a1a19c1d0a5c3e1359fa994cf60a4d98ee12e

Looks like that API has been around since at least 2005, so it should be no problem to switch. Really glad that enchant is maintained again.
