Download webkit-server from github

git clone https://github.com/niklasb/webkit-server.git webkit-server

Change in webkit-server/setup.py :

shutil.copy('src/webkit_server', self.build_purelib)
shutil.copy('src/webkit_server', self.build_platlib)

to

shutil.copy('src/webkit_server.pro', self.build_purelib)
shutil.copy('src/webkit_server.pro', self.build_platlib)

then

cd webkit-server
python setup.py install

There you go.
