Source: webkit2gtk
Version: 2.50.3-1

Debian's webkit2gtk package was marked as Linux-only starting with
version 2.46.1-2 about a year ago. Maybe that was a recognition that
the last successful official build of webkit2gtk on hurd-i386 was
2.42.5-1.

But ports offers a 2.48 version for hurd. However, the current stable
release (the only one with the latest security updates) is 2.50.3.

$ rmadison -u ports libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev

ppc64, sparc64
 libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev | 2.51.2-1        | debian-ports/experimental | loong64

Should webkit2gtk be changed back to build on any architecture instead
of only Linux architectures?

Thank you,
