qt5-qtwebengine-5.9.0-4.fc26

FEDORA-2017-e83c26a8c9 created by kkofler 7 years ago for Fedora 26

This update updates QtWebEngine to the 5.9.0 release. QtWebEngine 5.9.0 is part of the Qt 5.9.0 release, but only the QtWebEngine component is included in this update.

The update fixes the following security issues in QtWebEngine 5.8.0: CVE-2017-5006, CVE-2017-5007, CVE-2017-5008, CVE-2017-5009, CVE-2017-5010, CVE-2017-5011, CVE-2017-5012, CVE-2017-5013, CVE-2017-5014, CVE-2017-5015, CVE-2017-5016, CVE-2017-5017, CVE-2017-5018, CVE-2017-5019, CVE-2017-5020, CVE-2017-5021, CVE-2017-5022, CVE-2017-5023, CVE-2017-5024, CVE-2017-5025, CVE-2017-5026, CVE-2017-5027, CVE-2017-5029, CVE-2017-5032, CVE-2017-5033, CVE-2017-5034, CVE-2017-5036, CVE-2017-5039, CVE-2017-5040, CVE-2017-5044, CVE-2017-5045, CVE-2017-5046, CVE-2017-5052, CVE-2017-5053, CVE-2017-5055, CVE-2017-5057, CVE-2017-5058, CVE-2017-5059, CVE-2017-5060, CVE-2017-5061, CVE-2017-5062, CVE-2017-5065, CVE-2017-5066, CVE-2017-5067, CVE-2017-5068, and CVE-2017-5069.

Other important changes include:

  • Based on Chromium 56.0.2924.122 with security fixes from Chromium up to version 58.0.3029.96. (5.8.0 was based on Chromium 53.0.2785.148 with security fixes from Chromium up to version 55.0.2883.75.)
  • [QTBUG-54650, QTBUG-59922] Accessibility is now disabled by default on Linux, like it is in Chrome, due to poor options for enabling it conditionally and its heavy performance impact. Set the environment variable QTWEBENGINE_ENABLE_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY to enable it again.
  • [QTBUG-56531] Enabled filesystem: protocol handler.
  • [QTBUG-57720] Optimized incremental scene-graph rendering in particular for software rendering.
  • [QTBUG-60049] Enabled brotli support.
  • Many bug fixes, see https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtwebengine.git/tree/dist/changes-5.9.0?h=5.9 for details.

In addition, this build includes a fix for https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-61521 , a binary incompatibility in QtWebEngine 5.9.0 compared to 5.8.0.

QupZilla (2.1.2-4.fc26) doesn't start, maybe rebuild required?

qupzilla: relocation error: /lib64/libQupZilla.so.2: symbol free, version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5 with link time reference

Rebuilding stuff would work around it (kdepim is reportedly also affected), but QtWebEngine is supposed to be backwards-compatible, so I will try to fix it in QtWebEngine.

Yes, kdepim is affected: $ kmail kmail: relocation error: /lib64/libKF5MessageViewer.so.5: symbol free, version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5 with link time reference

Agreed - I get the same issue with kmail:

$ kmail kmail: relocation error: /lib64/libKF5MessageViewer.so.5: symbol free, version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5 with link time reference

I'm testing a fix now: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/qt5-qtwebengine.git/commit/?id=09a57d530ce6e89d75b43e1d73007b1b66a3bb8f but it will be a while until I have F26 builds ready to test.

I've just hit the bug 1464883 too - shouldn't this be retracted from testing?

Well, I was hoping to just edit the update with a fixed build, but now there is a mysterious further issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1464883#c2

This update has been unpushed.

kmail seems to work ok with:

$ rpm -qa | grep qt5-qtwebengine qt5-qtwebengine-5.9.0-4.fc26.x86_64

Yes, it works both kdepim/kmail and qupzilla. :-)

Fixes the above issues with Kmail/Qupzilla thanks.. so a +1

However and old issue and a new issue has appeared so I filed a bug report:

This update has reached the stable karma threshold and can be pushed to stable now if the maintainer wishes.

@kvolny: Cannot reproduce this bug, i use ctrl+f all day.

What I know is that Ctrl+f is not working right in plain text files even with QtWebEngine 5.8.0. So I don't think that that is a regression from this update.

It works even with plain text files for me. What do you mean by "not working right"?

I've had it just not do anything. But this is with the old 5.8.0, mind you.
