(In reply to comment #0) > Make WebKit2 require GTK+ 3.x unconditionally. Hello Carlos and Xan, I have an ignorant question. I wonder why WebKit2 GTK port requires GTK3 unconditionally.

Our reasoning was that by the time that we are ready to release WebKit2 in a stable branch, all Linux distributions will be shipping GTK+ 3.x as the default GTK+ version. Is it important to you to maintain GTK+ 2.x support for WebKit2?

Is it important to you to maintain GTK+ 2.x support for WebKit2? Hello Martin, Long time no see. :-) I heard that flash 10.x version only supports GTK2 ver. So, my coworkers who focus on WebKit GTK wanna support GTK2 on WebKit2's GTK port for now.

So, my coworkers who focus on WebKit GTK wanna support GTK2 on WebKit2's GTK port for now. The plugin process will use GTK2 unconditionally because of this reason. See bug #60546.
