--- Comment #17 from Paul van Tilburg <paul at luon.net> ---
Sorry, I got sidetracked and also had to get libsoup 2.56.0 backported to Ubuntu Xenial first to be able to test this.

I installed gss-ntlmssp and installed libsoup2.4 2.56.0, but nothing happens for me, really.  When opening a page that sends WWW-Authenticate: NTLM, WebKitGTK basically doesn't react at all (without the patch) and the user gets a 401.

If I look at commit 6a8826f0d25459c943719b88f22619f22b81c547 in libsoup, I see it just provides an implementation for WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate next to the already existing WWW-Authenticate: NTLM, where the latter is the one I'm trying to support.  It is not clear to me from documentation how supporting one is also covering supporting the other.

However, it would be great if we could drop the patch.  Ubuntu often updates WebKitGTK (which is a good thing), but it is a pain to keep doing the non-trivial rebuild for this patch all the time ;)
