@b2m, with current Ubuntu/Debian repos (even just python:3.7), we get the following problem at run time:

Namespace WebKit2 not available

But installing gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 would pull in a full gnome-shell ...

Thx @bertsky for your comment. As you already figured out gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 was missing from the dependencies.

I do not know whether it was an indirect dependency before or it is a new dependency from browse-ocrd or it's libraries.

But installing gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 would pull in a full gnome-shell ...

Fortunately not as I am installing it with the option --no-install-recommends.

I updated this gist accordingly.
