DESCRIPTION

This module provides the Perl bindings for the Gtk3 port of WebKit.

INSTALLATION

"Headless" Debian based systems (inc Ubuntu)

If you are running an X Server (desktop environment) then you should be fine. If you are trying to install this on a "headless" server, then you will need a framebuffer display to take the place of the X server.

The xvfb-run command can do this for you.

With Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, you'll need these (or more recent) extra deb packages:

xvfb libgirepository1.0-dev pkg-config libgtk-3-dev libglib2.0-dev libglib2.0-0 gir1.2-webkit-3.0

At which point everything should "just work".
