This is required when mixing different minor versions of gnome libraries, e.g. gdk_pixbuf 2.36 with 2.38.

Ping :) What is the status of this? Does it need more testing? |
It has some issues, but fewer than the previous version: Tried to load up GitHub: I had some (4) with nixos.org, but see, it works... This is an improvement to the current behaviour of not working after showing empty windows. So... erm I'm not sure it was acting that way back in January. Not sure where to go from here. |
According to the Netsurf mailing list, the last call for fixes to land in 3.9 is happening now. The version is expected to fix a lot of issues. Including incompatibilities with newer versions of cURL which I encounter when running Netsurf using this PR. I have an environment with nix-shell for developing Netsurf and the build it produces seems to work with no issues. Maybe merge this and make a note to update to the 3.9 release soon or perhaps wait, since the release is not too far off. That said feedback is requested against their CI builds. |
+1 for merging this for now and seeing what happens with 3.9 once it's released |
Let's wait; no change here is worth it since it's likely close; 3.9 is likely to fix the issue if I understand it right. |
Turns out the update didn't fix the issue with the certificates being unknown, but I figured out a solution to the problem. See #65360. |
Motivation for this change
Updates netsurf and related libraries.
The default config for netsurf (using sixel ui) wasn't tested, I can't get it to work, in the previous iteration either. The gtk ui, though works fine.
