We're switching from the legacy webkit API in haikuwebkit-1.7.x to the new / modern webkit API in haikuwebkit-1.8.x.
Not really. It's the same old API with a few ABI changes here and there, as with every WebKit update. Probably not a one-time change, this will happen again everytime we add some features to WebKit that requires changing the ABI, since there is no FBC padding or any other strategy in place to avoid breakage.

Fixed in hrev55218.
expected. Sorry for the breakage. We're switching from the legacy webkit API in haikuwebkit-1.7.x to the new / modern webkit API in haikuwebkit-1.8.x.
If you apply the latest system updates (hrev55218 or later, should be available in a few hours) and reboot for them to take effect, WebPositive will be working as expected.
This was a messy update... hopefully a one-time thing :-)
