[Qt-interest] webkit with no GUI

[Daniel Vérité]

  Hi,

The doc says that QWebPage can be used in a widgetless environment, but 
when called within a non-GUI QApplication, the QWebPage's constructor 
fails:

#0  0xb804c430 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1  0xb6248880 in raise () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
#2  0xb624a248 in abort () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
#3  0xb65ec7d4 in qt_message_output (msgType=QtFatalMsg, 
    buf=0xbfb4abf0 "ASSERT: \"!\"No style available in non-gui 
applications!\"\" in file kernel/qapplication.cpp, line 1233") at 
global/qglobal.cpp:2102
#4  0xb65ec858 in qFatal (msg=0xb676fc84 "ASSERT: \"%s\" in file %s, 
line %d")

    assertion=0xb72ab660 "!\"No style available in non-gui

    file=0xb72ab3c8 "kernel/qapplication.cpp", line=1233)
    at global/qglobal.cpp:1872
#6  0xb6b900fa in QApplication::style () at

(this=0x89a4f60, 
    desiredOffset=@0x89a4f98) at platform/qt/ScrollViewQt.cpp:476
...

My use-case is a unix batch program that would convert HTML files to 
PDF with no X server available. Am I out of luck?

Best regards,
