I'm trying to build webkitgtk2 without having geoclue2 as a dependency. I removed 'geoclue2' and tried to build the package. Here's the error:
checking for GEOCLUE2... no
checking for GEOCLUE... no
configure: error: Package requirements (geoclue) were not met:
No package 'geoclue' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GEOCLUE_CFLAGS
and GEOCLUE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
Aborting...
Could any more experienced user tell me what to do? I never faced such error.
If it ain't broke, you haven't tweaked it enough...

You may have removed the geoclue package, but you haven't disabled the geolocation feature. Edit the PKGBUILD and add "--disable-geolocation" to the configure command. Then rerun makepkg (or your clean chroot build script).

It seems to be compiling, which is always a good sign. It's also taking too long to compile, for a 10 MB prgram
We'll see how it goes.

Well, I gave up. 3 hours and nothing done, and 500 MB of data into the folder.

Webkit takes forever to build. 3 hours sounds about right.

But... but.... it's a 10 MB package Why would it take so long? Shouldn't all webkit's dependencies be satisfied by Arch?

Compile time is not a matter of size but of what is done during the build. If the dependencies were wrong, it would notbuild at all.
