John,
OK, will try and test a clean install maybe on Sunday. I did actually get
my build working but as usual other things took my time. I still had the
jhbuild package using python2.7, installed that and was able to do a
successful build with a couple of tweaks. I noticed the ICU update and
downgraded ICU, boost and halfbuzz I think to match the webkit version and
cmake and removed pkgconf.
I imagine that as I had been building on windows for a long time I was
always using the old version of jhbuild.
If I recall, I did notice something strange with the mariad database files,
with a new install I do not think there is a plugin directory but will
confirm that.
Regards,
Bob
