Re: [Geary] Heads up: WebKit2 port landing on master this weekend

[step21 <step21 devtal de>]

This is on valac 0.30.1 and gcc gcc (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.4)
5.4.0 20160609

I cannot really tell if this is valac or gcc complaining, it happens
on step "Generating .geary-engine.stamp", full error here with the end
parts of cmake roughly translated so they might be a bit off.

Of this kind of error it seems to be the only kind, once I replace the
'\v' it runs through (except some warnings) to 55%, generating
.geary-client.stamp. The log from that: http://pastebin.com/1CsruaaL
Basically "/home/user/projects/geary/src/client/composer/composer-link-popover.vala:176.9-176.20:
error: The name `popdown' does not exist in the context of
`ComposerLinkPopover' "
