You need gb.qt4.webkit to start the "gambas3" program, which is the
Gambas IDE. Note that you can still use a whole bunch of other Gambas
programs with fewer dependencies -- but I guess you want the IDE.

It baffles me that you say that a MySQL client and an OpenGL(?)
package would be needed to compile gb.openssl. And how does any
of those make the PostgreSQL driver available? Maybe the packages
you listed *pull in* some other core dependencies that all of the
above Gambas components rely on. In that case, those packages
need to be identified, not some other packages that happen to
pull in the needed dependencies.

Could you attach the output of the build process, as is advised [1]
when reporting compilation problems? It doesn't seem like you
provided that anywhere yet.

Tobi
