The deps of a given software can vary upon versions.

Here is the end of README.deps in the source archive of gncash-2.6.17:

This backend is platform dependent.

Note that the osx and windows backends are built-in in gio for their
respective platforms. On linux and similar systems, the dconf package
should be installed.

isocodes: translation of currency names

As you can see, the webkit version requested is, not 2.

But webkitg2gtk is webkit 2, not 1!
