[webkit-dev] Reducing the size of libQtWebKit.so

[Saravanan Ponnuswamy]

Hi,

I tried compiling teh webkit for Qt using ./configure. but i could not.. its
asking for GTK+, pango,cairo dependncies which are not required for
Qtopia...i think i can do that... let me try

anyway thanks for the suggesstion.

with regards,
saravanan
