    Hi!

    Both on m68k and sh4, qtwebkit-opensource-src doesn't build [1] and fixing the issue would probably require quite some elbow grease. Thus, it would be
    great if WebKit support in qttools could be disabled on these architectures
    for the time being.

    From what I can see [2], it should be enough to not build-depend on libqt5webkit5-dev
    on m68k and sh4, thus, I suggest suffixing this B-D with [!m68k !sh4]. Allowing qttools-opensource-src to build on m68k and sh4 would eventually allow cmake-extra-modules
    to build which will make a large number of packages installable again.

    Thanks for considering,

    Adrian
