Description jendrikseipp 2011-05-06 04:19:15 PDT 
Can someone explain the purpose of the file WebpageIcons.db that's created, when webkit-gtk is run? Can the creation of the file be made optional?

This is explained in the documentation:

http://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkitgtk/stable/WebKitIconDatabase.html
http://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkitgtk/stable/WebKitFaviconDatabase.html

I don't quite see how this is a bug, so I'm closing it.
