           Summary: QtWebKit MinGW does not link
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Building QtWebKit on Windows fails to link. I installed the latest Qt release
(qt-win-opensource-4.4.3-mingw.exe)  - MinGW was downloaded and installed by
the Qt installer - and followed the instructions from
http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingQtOnWindows.

There are several problems with QtWebKit on MinGW, will list the most obvious
ones
 a./ ENABLE_OFFLINE_WEB_APPLICATIONS and ENABLE_DOM_STORAGE are enabled even
though ENABLE_DATABASE is disabled. This is a problem, because
ENABLE_OFFLINE_WEB_APPLICATIONS and ENABLE_DOM_STORAGE are dependent on
ENABLE_DATABASE. This will eventually lead to a link-time failure.
 b./ ENABLE_DATABASE is deliberately turned off if QtWebKit is not built inside
an Qt release

In some instances (e.g. when SQLITE3SRCDIR is defined or building inside Qt)
QtWebKit build can pick up sqlite3.c and link it in. I would like to propose to
extend this functionality to the Win MingGW build as well, since the Qt release
comes with an sqlite3.c source.
