As reported in Debian Bug #882663 [0], the removal of qtwebkit from
Debian is expected in January, possibly December.

This affects Debian testing & unstable, and most likely the upcoming
Ubuntu LTS (bionic) as well unless they decide ignore the removal before
the Debian Import Freeze on March 1st. [1]
