I am trying to install webkit-server , I have installed qt5.6 on amazon ec2 linux ami server , but was always notified that "Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webkitwidgets" when run sudo python setup.py install

I searched and just can not find "libqt5webkit5-dev " for CentOS or ec2 linux ami .

I guess qt4 supported only , is it right ?

Qt5 should work. That's what I'm using locally. However, maybe you need to install qtwebkit as a separate package? I'm not familiar with CentOS unfortunately.

I asked the same question on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36099888/project-error-unknown-modules-in-qt-webkitwidgets-amazon-linux-ami-qt5-6-i , turns out webkit modules were removed from Qt 5.6 .

see the release notes from http://wiki.qt.io/New_Features_in_Qt_5.6#Removed_Modules .

Yeah, Qt WebKit is definitely needed. From how I read the notes, you can still build it from source though.

sorry , I am commenting on the closed issues . Just want to provide more info.

capybara-webkit is only support qt5.5 . I suggest it's better to mention this in dryscrape readme to save others' time . I have spent around 3 days trying to figure out what's the problem .

niklasb commented 8 years ago

@deter3 I agree with you absolutely. I will put something in the docs about that.
