Severity: normal

Hi,

the new 2.40.x branch of the WPE WebKit engine introduced a new 2.0
API. The GStreamer WPE plugin uses the 1.1 API, which upstream would
like to remove sooner or later.

The wpewebkit-2.0 packages have already been uploaded to experimental.

Since WPE WebKit in Debian only has two reverse dependencies I would
like to make the transition, move wpewebkit-2.0 to unstable and get
rid of wpewebkit-1.1.

One of the reverse dependencies (cog) is ready and also available in
experimental.

The other one is gstreamer1.0-wpe. This has been updated upstream to
support the 2.0 API but it hasn't been released yet (it will likely
happen after summer if I'm not wrong). However the patch can be cherry
picked to the stable branch.

I'm attaching the debdiff in case you want to consider switching the
gst-wpe plugin to the 2.0 API in experimental. Once that is done I'm
ready to move the wpewebkit-2.0 packages to unstable.

Thanks,

Berto
