Hi,

WebKitGTK+ has a clear policy on the minimum versions of dependent modules.

  WebKitGTK/DependenciesPolicy – WebKit
  https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/DependenciesPolicy

What about modules in jhbuild? What is the maximum version to which I can bump.
Here are the part of current specified versions:

> glib	2.44.1
> cairo	1.14.2
> fontconfig	2.11.1
> freetype	2.4.11
> harfbuzz	1.3.3
> icu	55.1
> libjpeg	N/A
> libpng	N/A
> libwebp	N/A
> gtk+	3.16.4
> atk	2.15.4
> libxml2	2.9.1
> libxslt	1.1.29
> libsoup	2.57
> (...)

I'd like to bump freetype and icu of jhbuild for emoji.

Can I specify the latest of modules?

I discovered this Michael's comment.

I shouldn't increase the number of failure when bumping.
