Evolution and broken webkit-gtk-2.46.5

[Massimo B.]

After the last update, the mail preview in Evolution has broken font hinting with bold and thin fonts alternating. The hinting is bad, newlines can't be seen, hyperlinks cannot be browsed. Sometimes the preview crashes with…

A WebKitWebProcess crashed when displaying the message. You can try again by moving to another message and back…

The folders, menus and stuff are fine, only the mail-preview is affected.

Code: Select all

mail-client/evolution-3.52.4-r2
net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.46.5-r410

Starting Evolution from terminal does not show any information about the WebKitWebProcess crashing on STDOUT.

I searched for something else depending on net-libs/webkit-gtk:4.1 and found net-news/liferea-1.15.5-r1
Same issue, menus and folders are fine, only the message preview is affected.

This is not the only issue with this (stable) update.
I'm going to downgrade webkit-gtk to the previous version:

Code: Select all

     Tue Oct 15 17:27:25 2024 >>> net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.44.4-r410
     Thu Jan 23 23:54:32 2025 >>> net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.46.5-r410

Because that package takes a lot of time, I'm going to quickpkg both for easier switching. I guess I need to rebuild evolution as well after every switch for its dependency.
Then I'm going to enable Debugging#Per-package for webkit-gtk and attach a gdb for the trace when crashing. (I guess I can't quickpkg the same version with and without symbols?)
It's not the first issue with webkit-gtk-2.46.* identified on Evolution.

P.S.: net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.44.4-r410 fixed the issue and did not need evolution to be rebuilt.

[Massimo B.]

Weird, I have built 2.46.5-r410 now with symbols, but can't reproduce neither of the bugs ([2]), everything is working.
Hinting of mail preview is a bit different, but not broken anymore and not crashing.

Code: Select all

$ equery belongs "$(ldd /usr/bin/evolution |grep webkit | cut -d " " -f 3)"
 * Searching for /usr/lib64/libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0 ... 
net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.46.5-r410 (/usr/lib64/libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0.16.7)
net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.46.5-r410 (/usr/lib64/libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0 -> libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0.16.7)

I hope it's not related to my recent fontconfig changes about the hinting: fontconfig recommendation

[Massimo B.]

I got the crash again now with webkit-gtk-2.46.5-r410 and symbols. I'm going to attach gdb but it fails to find the symbols:

On other installations I also run into the broken hinting with net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.46.5-r410 and can always solve it by downgrading to net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.44.4-r410.
Eventhough this description is a but vague I'm going to file the bug 952008.
