Package : webkit2gtk
Debian Bug : 1054101

The webkit2gtk update released as 5527-1 introduced a regression that
is causing programs such as yelp, liferea or gnucash to stop working
in certain cases.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed
in version 2.42.1-1~deb11u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your webkit2gtk packages.
