Re: [platform-swt-dev] SWT testing platform

On second thoughts, I agree. It would not harm to have the Webkit 2.x
libraries also available and would allow us to incrementally add test
coverage whenever we integrate support for Webkit 2.x.

Webkit 2.x releases contain both the 1.x and 2.x so libs parallel
installable and I'm looking for something that would require both being
available on the machine as I don't expect webmasters to update the machine
again just for having libwebkit2gtk if it's not a prerequisite. So we would
better require it from the beginning.
