            Bug ID: 251355
           Summary: [GTK] For Wayland target, linker fails for dependency
                    on WPEBackend_fdo version 1.6.0
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Background: I am not using Flatpak builds and trying to build GTK port using direct CMake command. So this may be a non issue.

Issue: When  building for Wayland (ENABLE_WAYLAND_TARGET=ON), currently dependency is on wpebackend_fdo version 1.6.0 (OptionsGTK.cmake). But 1.6.0 [version](https://github.com/Igalia/WPEBackend-fdo/commit/1dda80de5372e56cdc6f818a3fca493f7cc1f9d6) does not export call to version numbers. So linker fails with undefined references to wpe_fdo_get_major_version/wpe_fdo_get_minor_version/wpe_fdo_get_micro_version. 

It is fixed in wpebackend_fdo version 1.6.1. So I feel wpebackend_fdo version should be updated to 1.6.1 in OptionsGTK.cmake.

I like to submit a minimal PR which updates version to wpebackend_fdo 1.6.1 in OptionsGTK.cmake. But that might cause build failures in certain distributions. For e.g Works in Ubuntu 22.04, but fails in Ubuntu 20.04 where the package manager install defaults to version 1.6.0. Hope EWS will catch if so.
