This is a bug fix release in the stable 2.2 series.

What's new in the WebKitGTK+ 2.2.6 release?
===========================================

  - Fix infinite loop in WebProcess due to a race condition that can
    happen when the socket event source is cancelled.
  - Use a persistent cache for plugins metadata to avoid blocking the
    UI while scanning plugins during page loads.
  - Make sure the web process doesn't finish if there's an ongoing
    print operation.
  - Fix web process leak when the WebView is leaked by the
    application.
  - Fix the generation of g_return macros for GObject DOM bindings in
    some cases where non pointer parameters were handled as pointers.
