[xiphos-devel] RHEL 9 compatibility

[Tim Dickson]

Hi Karl.
this patch isn't going upstream is it? many distro's are moving or have 
moved to soup3 based gnome. (soup 2.4 is eol)
currently the slackware xiphos package is set to use soup3/webkit2gtk4.1 
courtesy of yelp, and slackware 15.1 when it comes out also uses soup3.
Due to incompatibility between soup2.4 and 3.0 you can't have both 
linked into a binary at the same time, which
means all the dependencies that uses soup have to be of one kind or the 
other and not a mix if they are run-time deps, rather than just compile 
time deps.
gnome started moving to soup3 with gnome 43, and currently gnome47 is eol.
regards, Tim
