webkitgtk not found on Fedora 26

[samtuke]

Asteroid cannot be installed currently on Fedora 26 due to webkitgtk not being found. webkitgtk is installed on my system via yum. yum package version:

Name         : webkitgtk
Version      : 2.4.11
Release      : 5.fc26
Arch         : x86_64
Size         : 45 M
Source       : webkitgtk-2.4.11-5.fc26.src.rpm

Did you check the instructions here, the top section: https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid/wiki/Fedora

@gauteh Yes, same error:

You may have to delete the .scons dirs, otherwise @ramblurr might know. We're in the progress of moving to WebKit2, so hopefully things will get better after that.

@gauteh Thanks; there are no .scons dirs in the cloned git dir, but there is .sconsign.dblite. I deleted that and re-ran the above command; the result was the same.

I have Astroid working on Fedora 26.

@samtuke you ran this command?

scons notmuch-devel boost-devel glibmm24-devel webkitgtk-devel webkitgtk3-devel libsass-devel gmime-devel gtkmm30-devel gobject-introspection-devel libpeas-devel gcc-c++

That's not right, those are packages you should install, prepend dnf install to that list

dnf install scons notmuch-devel boost-devel glibmm24-devel webkitgtk-devel webkitgtk3-devel libsass-devel gmime-devel gtkmm30-devel gobject-introspection-devel libpeas-devel gcc-c++

;-)

I see how it is confusing since the first item in the list is also the command used to do the build. I've edited the wiki to make that clear.

[Ramblurr]

@samtuke Did this solve your issue?

[samtuke]

@ramblurr yes it did solve that issue; thanks! Asteroid compiled and fails to start, however that's unrelated as far I can tell and so will be reported separately.
