Thanks to Daniel Kolesa. The regression in JSCore of WebKit GTK which has marred the functionality of GNOME 3.36 is finally resolved. This issue is a blocker for GNOME 3.36 adoption on PowerPC64 platforms.

I found out about this issue during the GNOME 3.37 cycle but unable to pin point the commit that caused the issue. Fortunately, Daniel jumped in to save the day.

I am expecting the downstream Fedora 32 would publish new version of webkit2gtk3 RPM in a day or two.

Great. Luckily, I'm still on F31.

I was thinking of going back to F31. There are so many packages that aren't playing nice with GCC10 :(

I tried rawhide several weeks ago and a lot of GNOME extensions doesn't work properly, that was the reason I switched back.
