Summary: Falkon web browser core package

Description:
Falkon is a new KDE web browser, previously known as QupZilla. Following this release, there will only be one last final QupZilla release. Falkon is a new and very fast QtWebEngine browser. It aims to be a lightweight web browser available through all major platforms. This project has been originally started only for educational purposes. But from its start, Falkon has grown into a feature-rich browser. Falkon has all standard functions you expect from a web browser. It includes bookmarks, history (both also in sidebar) and tabs. Above that, you can manage RSS feeds with an included RSS reader, block ads with a builtin AdBlock plugin, block Flash content with Click2Flash and edit the local CA Certificates database with an SSL Manager. Falkon's main aim is to be a very fast and very stable QtWebEngine browser available to everyone. There are already a lot of QtWebEngine browsers available, but they are either bound to the KDE environment (rekonq), are not actively developed or very unstable and miss important features. But there is missing a multiplatform, modern and actively developed browser. Falkon is trying to fill this gap by providing a very stable browsing experience. If you were previously using QupZilla, you can manually migrate your profiles to Falkon by moving the config directory (usually in ~/.config/qupzilla/). There is no automatic migration.
