[webkit-gtk] Error on executing update-webkitgtk-libs.

[Mayur K]

Just for the record : I was able to get over the libsoup issue following
these steps

1) Get the libsoup sources from
http://download.gnome.org/sources/libsoup/2.42/libsoup-2.42.0.tar.xz
2) Run configure and make install
3) Run sudo ldconfig - This updates the environment vars to use the latest
version of the libs installed.
4) Download glib required version -
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.36/
5) Run steps 2 & 3 for glib as well
6) Download glib-networking -
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib-networking/2.36/
7) Run steps 2 & 3 for the above lib
8) Install php5-xmlrpc using apt-get install

To know the current version of the lib installed use the pkg-config
--modversion command.
Thanks.
