[webkit-gtk] WebKitGTK 2.36.2 released!

[Lothar Scholz]

I finally got this version installed on Ubuntu 22.04 using GTK4 and it
crashes with this stack trace immediately when it is fist shown on
Wayland.
When using X11 it does not crash but all the WebKitWebView area just
stays white.

Usage: frame view STACK-ADDRESS
       frame view STACK-ADDRESS PC-ADDRESS
