Bug#623438: On packaging EFLWebKit

[Gustavo Noronha Silva]

Hey,

The problem we currently have with WebKit is we have several source
packages that are essentially several copies of the same code base
(WebCore, essentially). It's hard to make them one because each port has
different release schedules and WebCore itself does not have a public
API.

Packaging EFLWebKit currently means adding yet another copy of WebCore
and its cairo/soup/gstreamer backends into the archive. I personally
don't have the time nor the motivation to try such a thing, but I can
help someone who does. It would be great to have some coordination
between QtWebKit, EFLWebKit and WebKitGTK+ regarding releases - having a
single tarball for all of those would rock.

Cheers,
