[Development] libQt5WebKit5, libQt5WebKitWidgets5 and QtWebProcess doubt

Hi! In Debian (and most probably Ubuntu too) we are currently shipping 
libQt5WebKit5 and libQt5WebKitWidgets5 in the same. This has the disadvantage 
of making more difficult to maintain proper symbols files [0].

So I took the time to split them and came to the following situation:

- libQt5WebKitWidgets5 depends on libQt5WebKit5
- QtWebProcess depends on libQt5WebKitWidgets5

Now the question: does libQt5WebKit5 make suse of QtWebProcess the executable? 
I really hope not, but I couldn't understand the source code so as to decide 
on this.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Lisandro.


[0] Just in case, symbols files are used to keep track of the symbols exposed 
by a lib and try to catch possible API/ABI breaks.
