(hope i'm reporting a bug in the right place)

Webkit based apps won't start after libwebkit-1.0-2 update from version 1.1.17.1 to 1.1.18.1. I'm using Webkit's Team PPA for Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala.

When I type "midori" in the shell I get the following error:
symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libwebkit-1.0.so.2: undefined symbol: soup_content_decoder_get_type

When I type "gwibber": 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gwibber", line 55, in <module>
    from gwibber import client
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/client.py", line 11, in <module>
    from . import gwui, config, configui, gintegration

    import webkit
ImportError: /usr/lib/libwebkit-1.0.so.2: undefined symbol: soup_content_decoder_get_type

Looks like the installed libsoup version was not recent enough.

Since this is more than 3 years old I guess it doesn't make sense to keep it open. Please reopen if you think it's still relevant.
