Changelog

webkit2gtk (2.26.3-1ubuntu1) focal; urgency=medium

  * Resynchronize on Debian, remaining change
  * debian/patches/upstream_egl_fix.patch:
    - backport an upstream commit to fix the build with the new libegl

webkit2gtk (2.26.3-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * New upstream release.
  * The WebKitGTK security advisory WSA-2019-0006 lists the following
    security fixes in the latest versions of WebKitGTK:
    + CVE-2019-8765, CVE-2019-8821, CVE-2019-8822 (fixed in 2.24.4)
    + CVE-2019-8710, CVE-2019-8743, CVE-2019-8764, CVE-2019-8766,
      CVE-2019-8782, CVE-2019-8808, CVE-2019-8815 (fixed in 2.26.0)
    + CVE-2019-8783, CVE-2019-8811, CVE-2019-8813, CVE-2019-8816,
      CVE-2019-8819, CVE-2019-8820, CVE-2019-8823 (fixed in 2.26.1)
    + CVE-2019-8812, CVE-2019-8814 (fixed in 2.26.2)
  * Build without the bubblewrap sandbox if the required dependencies are
    not available (Closes: #944731):
    + debian/rules:
      - Pass -DENABLE_BUBBLEWRAP_SANDBOX depending on whether libseccomp
        is installed.
      - Add runtime dependencies on bubblewrap and xdg-dbus-proxy
        conditionally to the status of ENABLE_BUBBLEWRAP_SANDBOX.
    + debian/control:
      - Don't require bubblewrap, xdg-dbus-proxy or libseccomp-dev in
        alpha, ia64, m68k, riscv64, sh4 or sparc64.
  * Enable USE_WPE_RENDERER:
    + debian/control:
      - Add build dependency on libwpebackend-fdo-1.0-dev.
    + debian/rules:
      - Set USE_WPE_RENDERER depending on whether wpebackend-fdo is
        available or not (this allows disabling it by simply removing the
        build dependency).
  * debian/rules:
    + Use -g1 in all builds. The webkit2gtk debug packages are huge and
      I'm not convinced that they have been very useful for reporting
      bugs. Using -g1 is enough for a basic backtrace and it makes the
      packages easier to handle.
    + Install the NEWS file using debian/libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37.docs.
  * debian/control:
    + Switch build dependency from libenchant-dev to libenchant-2-dev
      (Closes: #948106).
    + Add build dependency on libx11-xcb-dev (Closes: #949430).
    + Add Rules-Requires-Root: no.
  * debian/patches/use-python3.patch:
    + The unversioned python interpreter (i.e. Python 2) is not installed
      by default anymore, so use Python 3 instead (Closes: #948839).
  * debian/patches/user-agent-branding.patch:
    + Refresh.
  * debian/libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37.symbols:
    + Add Build-Depends-Package field.
  * debian/copyright:
    + Update copyright years.

webkit2gtk (2.26.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.
  * debian/rules:
    + Stop building with -O1 for armhf and friends, the build seems to
      work just fine with -O2 now.
  * debian/control:
    + Require bubblewrap >= 0.3.1.
  * debian/patches/force-single-process.patch:
    + Remove this patch, the fixed version of Geary (3.34.1) is now in
      unstable.
  * The WebKitGTK security advisory WSA-2019-0005 lists the following
    security fixes in the latest versions of WebKitGTK:
    + CVE-2019-8768 (fixed in 2.24.0).
    + CVE-2019-8735 (fixed in 2.24.2).
    + CVE-2019-8726 (fixed in 2.24.3).
    + CVE-2019-8674, CVE-2019-8707, CVE-2019-8719, CVE-2019-8733 and
      CVE-2019-8763 (fixed in 2.24.4).
    + CVE-2019-8625, CVE-2019-8720, CVE-2019-8769 and CVE-2019-8771

gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-4.0: JavaScript engine library from WebKitGTK - GObject introspection data

 JavaScriptCore is the JavaScript engine used in WebKit. It consists
 of the following building blocks: lexer, parser, start-up interpreter
 (LLInt), baseline JIT, a low-latency optimizing JIT (DFG), and a
 high-throughput optimizing JIT (FTL).
 .
 This build comes from the GTK port of WebKit (API version 4.0).
 .
 This package contains the introspection data, which can be used by
 packages using the GIRepository format to generate dynamic bindings.

gir1.2-webkit2-4.0: Web content engine library for GTK - GObject introspection data

 WebKit is a web content engine, derived from KHTML and KJS from KDE, and
 used primarily in Apple's Safari browser. It is made to be embedded in
 other applications, such as mail readers, or web browsers.
 .
 It is able to display content such as HTML, SVG, XML, and others. It also
 supports DOM, XMLHttpRequest, XSLT, CSS, JavaScript/ECMAScript and more.
 .
 WebKit2 is an API layer for WebKit designed from the ground up to
 support a split process model, where the web content lives in a
 separate process from the application UI.
 .
