Webkit Compiling

From Docunext Technology Wiki

Summary

Webkit is a nice website rendering engine, but its use with GTK and on linux is bleeding edge stuff as of early 2009.

Qt

I'm trying to build webkit with Qt using some basic instructions here, and I'm using these commands too:

apt-get build-dep webkit libqt4-webkit

I'm running into this error:

../../../WebCore/platform/graphics/qt/GraphicsContextQt.cpp: In member function ‘void WebCore::GraphicsContext::drawLine(const WebCore::IntPoint&, const WebCore::IntPoint&)’:

GTK

WorkQueueItemGtk.cpp

I commented out the problem lines in WorkQueueItemGtk.cpp and it compiled OK, and seems to run fine as well.

JSCSSCharsetRule.o

DerivedSources/.libs/JSCSSCharsetRule.o: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [libWebCoreJS.la] Error 1
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
mv -f JavaScriptCore/.deps/libJavaScriptCore_la-AllInOneFile.Tpo JavaScriptCore/.deps/libJavaScriptCore_la-AllInOneFile.Plo
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/albertlash/src/webkitsvn'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Not sure how to try and fix this. I've tried make clean, reconfiguring and recompiling everything, but no go.
