           Summary: [GTK] Add support for GTK+3
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Gtk
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: xan.lopez at gmail.com


We need to add support for the upcoming GTK+ 3.x series. Here's an overwiew of the changes the patch brings:

- A new --with-gtk parameter, with options '2.0' or '3.0'. The default for now is '2.0', to keep the same behavior than we have now.
- The library version in the GTK+ 3.x mode is bumped to 3, to be in sync with GTK+. For the 2.x mode we keep it in 1 for compatibility reasons.
- The library is renamed to libwebkitgtk in both 2.x and 3.x support options. This is an ABI break, so the library version numbers are all reset to 0:0:0. The reason for the name change is that there's potentially many webkit versions in one given system, so being named just "webkit" is pretentious.
- The .pc file is renamed to webkitgtk, with webkitgtk-3.0.pc being the file for the 3.x version. For the 2.x version we keep webkit-1.0.pc, again for compatibility reasons.
