Package: yelp
Version: 2.28.0+webkit-2
Severity: normal
Although this bug is now marked normal, it is a critical bug
for people like me who depend on accessibility. Webkit doesn't provide
the needed info for Orca. I've checked with upstream, and they
still use gecko do to the lack of support
for accessibility in webkit.

It would be really bad for Debian to release experimental code that has not
been released in a stable version.
