Re: [Gimp-developer] New GIMP configure warning/error

[Michael Natterer <mitch gimp org>]

Hi,

Since I'm not sure to which mail to reply, I'll reply to the thread's
original mail...

I'll keep it short:

- additional dependency: Í could not care less about some more
  MB to build/install/distribute in order to get whatever
  feature.

- networking code: that's a tough one, we are running into
  security issues here, but since we are using a completely
  broken old webkit version, can we really make it worse... :)

One thing that IMO went wrong with this change is that it should
have gone into master in the first place, and not just picked
to gimp-2-8 right away. We should really only push stuff to 2-8
when we are 100% sure.

Regards,
Mitch
