Package: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37
Version: 2.30.4-1~deb10u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When loading plugin, webkit complains it couldn't find WebKitPluginProcess with 
the following error message:

Unable to fork a new child process: Failed to execute child process “/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.0/WebKitPluginProcess” (No such file or directory) 

I have downloaded and built the source of this package. I found that
WebKitPluginProcess was actually built but wasn't copied to the installation
directory after "sudo make install". If I manually copy WebKitPluginProcess to 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.0/ then the plugin will work.

That's all. Thank you for your attention.
