QtWebKit as opt-in dependency? about copyq HOT 5 CLOSED

Oh, you're right I made a mistake when writing detection for QtWebKit in cmake. It will be fixed in release after 1.6.1.

Run-time detection would be really good but for that I would have to implement some kind of plugin system. I'll to think about it but don't expect results any time soon :).

The build issue is fixed in 1.6.2 release -- i.e. if QtWebKit library is not found the application compiles without it.

Thanks, that's one thing sorted out :).

Plugins are done! With just "cmake . && make" you can automatically build app and all plugins.

So now you can also build all plugins except the one which depends on QtWebKit with:

cmake -DWITH_WEBKIT=0 .
make # build app and plugins except "itemweb" plugin
make install # installs /usr/local/bin/copyq and /usr/local/lib/copyq/plugins/*

To build and install just the "itemweb" plugin (which depends on QtWebKit) do:

cmake .
make itemweb
sudo install plugins/libitemweb.so /usr/local/lib/copyq/plugins/ # copy the compiled plugin to install prefix

Well, that would mean you'll have to maintain one more package ... sorry :).

I can live with that :).
Thanks again for your work and I think it can be closed now.
