[webkit-efl] Building on CentOS 6.3?

[Daniel Robinson]

Yes, thank you for the response.

I tried your suggestion previously and I am not at a computer to recreate
it now.  If I recall, the result was a message about PORT not needed or not
used, and then the cmake cache files were polluted.  Perhaps I didn't use
correct values for the arguments, I don't know.

But my question remains this: even if I am not planning to develop in
WebKit itself, shouldn't build-webkit work for me on a RHEL derived box,
the same way that it works on Ubuntu?

Thanks, Dan
