• Component: WebKitGTK
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

screenshot from version 2.49.1 (good)

I will shortly attach two screenshots of MiniBrowser  displaying www.google.co.in which attempts to
show the regression from 2.49.1 to 2.49.2.  on a build with USE_SKIA=ON, and USE_GTK4=NO  

loading webkit;//gpu  will also demonstrate a problem with the fonts: the fonts cannot be scaled, increased
or decreased by C-+, and the size can only be changed by changing the MinimumFontSize preference. in settings. Please let me know if you can reproduce this.

The  pr on top of the lastest rawhide build fixed all the symptoms I was seeing.

Thanks

I'm also happy to confirm  that this one-line fix built quickly when applied to my 2.49.2 tree, and fixes both
the font and the rendering problem. Thanks.

Thanks for testing, I'm sorry that I landed that patch without actually testing a gtk3 build.
