This is completely correct: Gnucash is not yet ready for gtk-3. So we should 
not look for webkitgtk-3.0.pc as this is not (yet) the correct package for us.

This begs the question: What went wrong at Cristian's installation and how 
should this be fixed the right way? Was there a packaging error in the 
webkit-1.0-dev package?
