I have been attempting to install the webhelper plugin, i first tried to install it i tried building from source, this work after a while however the webhelper plugin was missing. i tried installing it through dnf as i am on fedora but every plugin, BUT webelper was available.
i noticed that someone else had the same problem a me, in a forum:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=350114

it depends on deprecated webkitgtk, so Debian maintainers disabled it. I guess it will be so until it's ported to webkit2gtk.
When i try to compile it from source i get the message:

checking for WEBHELPER... no
configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-3.0 >= 2.16
                          glib-2.0 >= 2.22

                          gthread-2.0) were not met:

Package 'webkitgtk-3.0', required by 'virtual:world', not found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables WEBHELPER_CFLAGS
and WEBHELPER_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

i installed all of these and still get the same errors.
is there any solution?
