[WebKit-devel] kwebkitpart and konq-plugins dilemma...

[Dawit A]

While attempting to go through and fix some of the Konqueror plugins to add 
support for kwebkitpart, I run into one dilemma I do not know how to fix.

Unlike the khtml part, which is available by default, the kwebkitpart is 
optional and must be installed from extragear/base. For that reason some 
checks must be added to the plugins to detect the presence of kwebkitpart in 
order to add support for it. Unfortunately, both the kwebkitpart and konq-
plugins modules are both located in the very same module, extragear/base. This 
means that in order to activate support for kwebkitpart, one must first 
compile and install kwebkitpart and then do a clean (read: rerun cmake) 
compile and install of the konq-plugins.

I am sure this is mostly going to be an issue for distro packagers and those 
that compile KDE from source, but still it is an issue and I cannot think of a 
good way to solve it... Is creating dependencies between two standalone 
modules in extragear allowed ? Perhaps kwebkitpart belonged in extragear/libs 
after all ??? 

Suggestions are welcome...

Thanks,
Dawit A.
