Error while building webkitgtk2 without geoclue

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...

Re: Error while building webkitgtk2 without geoclue

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 smile

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 yikes Why would it take so long? Shouldn't all webkit's dependencies be satisfied by Arch?

Re: Error while building webkitgtk2 without geoclue

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.
