Why no phonon in Qt

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello,

I have removed flash after the latest problem with x86_64 release and I want 
to get youtube working ASAP.

To that end, I downloaded nightly sources of webkit(not wanting to download 
the entire svn checkout) and built the qt port. However the video element is 
still missing, as tested on http://html5test.com.

Digging into webkit build system, I discovered that it has disabled 
video/audio element support for qt port because the installed qt does not 
support phonon.

from http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/packages/qt/repos/extra-i686/PKGBUILD, 
phonon support is explicitly disabled during qt build.

I searched around but could not find a reason for the same. I really do not 
want to build(more importantly maintain) my own qt build. 

So why is phonon support disabled in Qt?
