[webkit-qt] Qt5 WebKit packaging for Ubuntu/ARM

[Zoltán Balogh]

That is a good idea.

The the qtwebkit from the alpha release I actually built and packaged 
with the --no-3d-canvas, but this parameter does not exist any more.

Thanks for the advice, I give it a try and see in 4-5 hours :) how it goes.

cheers,

z
