#50380: midori: current requisites won't build on PPC Tiger
-------------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  asiganael@…  |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect       |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal       |  Milestone:
Component:  ports        |    Version:  2.3.4
 Keywords:  tiger        |       Port:  midori
-------------------------+--------------------------------
 I know Tiger is very old, but I hoped that midori, being "lightweight",
 would allow to browse modern webpages on PPC Tiger. Websites designed with
 new standards no longer work -or have issues- with the available versions
 of Safari and Firefox for Tiger. Even StackExchange has serious issues
 with such old browser versions.

 Trying to build on Tiger, and after *most* requisites were successfully
 installed, I hit a problem in webkit-gtk-2.0 which seems to have a
 difficult or impossible solution. The details and the logs are in this
 other ticket: [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50352]

 Would it be possible to substitute webkit-gtk-2.0 with other webkit
 package that can be built on Tiger (if it exists) ?

 Thanks!
