If WPE WebKit is not already installed, it fails to build trying to configure cog during the build process. So WPE port currently depends on an existing WPE install to bootstrap itself. Oops?

Maybe it's OK because it depends on -DENABLE_DEVELOPER_MODE=ON and can be worked around pretty easily by building with -DENABLE_COG=OFF. So feel free to close this if this is intended. That said, I was surprised.
