Subject: bug#66068: removing the WebKit when webkit2gtk3-2.42.5-1.el9.x86_64
 will not alllow RL9 to configure
Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2024 16:45:06 -0500

With today's tree emacs-30.0.91-54-gc1f2501f, I cannot find a
combination that allows building the X version, either Lucid or GTK3.

The installed version of webkit is webkit2gtk3-2.42.5-1.el9.x86_64.

I even turned off cairo and xwidgets with 
--without-cairo
--without-xwidgets

but no joy on make bootstrap.
