            Bug ID: 250915
           Summary: WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE no longer recognized
                    as system-wide environment variable
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Compositing
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

This report is regarding libwebkit2gtk-4.1 (2.38.3) via Eolie browser on Linux. Starting with the 4.1 API, WebKit no longer recognizes "WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE" as a system-wide environment variable, such as in an environment.d conf file. libwebkit2gtk-4.0 picks up on the system-wide environment variable and disables compositing, so this appears to be a change between the 4.0 and 4.1 API. Please have WebKit recognize this system-wide environment variable. Compositing on PowerPC Linux systems results in severely incorrect color rendering.
