Details

Description:
Foliate doesn't start. When ran from terminal, it shows:
```
itsnotme@notmypc:~$ export LC_ALL="C"
itsnotme@notmypc:~$ foliate
Gjs-Message: 22:58:05.129: JS WARNING: [resource:///com/github/johnfactotum/Foliate/js/main.js 23]: Requiring WebKit2 but it has 2 versions available; use imports.gi.versions to pick one

(com.github.johnfactotum.Foliate:13099): libsoup-ERROR **: 22:58:05.356: libsoup3 symbols detected. Using libsoup2 and libsoup3 in the same process is not supported.
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
```
This seems similar to  FS#72837 : https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/72837 . Unfortunately, downgrading libsoup to 2.74.1-1 and libsoup3 to 3.0.2-1 does not allow Foliate to start - it still crashes; this time with longer output (that is attached).


Additional info:
* foliate 2.6.3-1
* libsoup 2.74.2-1
* libsoup3 3.0.3-1


Steps to reproduce:
Ensure the packages have the versions specified above and just run Foliate.

I can confirm it happens, but it works correctly if gnome is not installed, seems like the presence of libsoup3 confuses foliate.

The fix/patch is in here:
https://github.com/johnfactotum/foliate/commit/8c00d67d57241bce965043fb98ba76782989eee5

For the PKGBUILD I'd also suggest to change the dependency from "webkit2gtk", to "libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so" so this will be seen before the transition was made to libsoup3 for the regular webkit2gtk package.
