Hi,
kwebkitpart will be not installed as kdebase and kdenetwork dependency
sinse KDE 4.6. So we should decide to add kwebkitpart to comps as default
or optional.
This is was discussed on KDE-SIG meeting
http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2010-11-23/kde-sig.2010-11-
23-14.03.log.html 3 votes for default and 2 votes for optional, need more
discussion.
In KDE < 4.6 kwebkitpart was installed by default as dependency of kdebase,
kdenetwork and konq-plugins. Users had possibility to select between KHTML
and WebKit view modes in Konqueror. Some sites works better with WebKit.
So if we decide to not install kwebkitpart as default then some users
may lose needed WebKit functionality if they reinstall F15 system.
I agree with Kevin - one default HTML engine is what we really want, users can
install WebKit part. But on the other hand - WebKit really works better (even
technologicaly is just worst) in many cases and we can loose Konqueror users
completely by switching to Firefox and I don't want to support FF and KDE
integration.
So we have two options:
1. make WebKit default engine (or even Rekonq as default browser - I know, Kevin
will kill me for this option ;-)
2. make it easier to install WebKit part - for users it's not very convenient to
install something called kwebkitpart - A KPart based on QtWebKit - using
PackageKit...
