            Bug ID: 199094
           Summary: [WPE][GTK] Bump minimum versions of GLib, GTK,
                    libsoup, ATK, GStreamer, and Cairo
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: mcatanzaro at igalia.com
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

We can remove a lot of preprocessor guards in our code if we bump the minimum required versions of certain dependencies:

GStreamer 1.8 -> 1.10
GTK 3.6 -> 3.22
ATK 2.16
libsoup 2.42 -> 2.54
glib 2.40 -> 2.44
cairo 1.14

I'm being extremely conservative with all these dependency bumps. All of these versions are already available in Debian Stretch, which we no longer support building on anyway due to GCC 7 requirement.

We still have a few preprocessor guards remaining for everything here except glib and cairo, but this removes the vast majority of them. Deleting code is fun!
