Hello,

wpewebkit is based on WebKit and therefore needs the same workaround
as webkit2gtk in #1101547 [1] to build on alpha:

--- debian/rules.orig   2025-03-14 23:12:01.000000000 +0100
+++ debian/rules        2025-03-27 10:18:12.936034298 +0100

 ifneq (,$(filter $(DEB_HOST_ARCH),i386))

Could you patch debian/rules as shown above to adjust CPPFLAGS on alpha?

Thanks,
Adrian
