= WebKitGTK+ Dependencies = This is the list of direct dependencies of WebKitGTK+, the ones we check when building. There are also indirect dependencies as required by the direct dependencies (for example cairo requires libpixman). There's a set of required dependencies and some others are optional, but required to enabled some features (for example you need GStreamer to have audio/video support). We have [wiki:DependenciesPolicy a policy regarding when its ok to bump minimum versions or introduce new dependencies]. However for some of the dependencies we encourage to use a newer version, as features will be disabled at build time if you don't have a newer version. || '''Name''' || '''Description''' || '''Required''' || '''Minimum Version''' || '''Recommended Version''' || '''Comments''' || || glib || Platform abstraction library || Yes || 2.33.2 || >= 2.42.0 || TLS backend required, typically glib-networking.
