[PyQt] Deprecation of QtWebKit

[Florian Bruhin]

Hi,

it looks like QtWebKit will officially be deprecated soon:

https://www.mail-archive.com/development@qt-project.org/msg18866.html

If I remember correctly, PyQt's policy always was to not wrap modules
deprecated upstream, right?

For QtWebKit, it seems like it will be around for some time even when
deprecated, and there are also some PyQt projects using it, like
Calibre[1], Eric[2] or my own qutebrowser[3]. Probably a lot of
smaller projects too.

Will this still be part of PyQt as long as it's (deprecated) part of
Qt, that is probably until Qt 6?
