I think you might be misreading the initial message Dale, the output is saying that it requires a version of 1.16.2 or higher, and John's latest shows that he has version 1.22.3 installed. I found a bug on bgo which might be related, https://bugs.gentoo.org/913644, it could be worth a try to downgrade dev-util/pkgconfig. I have the same versions installed, but when I last compiled webkit-gtk I had version 1.8.1 installed. Regards, Arve
