Source: qtwebkit-opensource-src
Severity: important
User: slomo@debian.org
Usertags: gstreamer0.10-removal

Hi maintainer,

your package qtwebkit-opensource-src currently still depends on
GStreamer 0.10.

GStreamer 0.10 is no longer maintained and supported by the upstream
project since almost 3 years, and contains many known bugs that are
fixed in the new 1.x release series of GStreamer. Next to many bug
fixes, the new release series also contains many other improvements,
new features and a more streamlined API.

For the next Debian release GStreamer 0.10 is planned to be removed,
and if your package is not updated it might not be included in the
release. Please update your package to use the new version as soon as
possible.

If you need any help with porting or have further questions, please
feel free to also contact me privately.

Best regards, Sebastian

PS: See https://bugs.debian.org/785198 and
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2015/05/msg00335.html for some
further discussion.

I'm sorry Elliot but I really can't understand you here. For what you 
described the problem is not in qtwebkit itself but on gstreamer0.1. So this 
is a bug for them, which is already reported, so I'll close this one.

Yes, Qt 5.5.0, due to July 1st. That version will hit experimental but not 
unstable, unstable will receive 5.5.1 whenever it comes out.

Kinds regards, Lisandro.
