The component in bugzilla corresponds to the source package name, not
the binary package name.  Often times these are the same, but you've
run into one of the instances where they are not.  One way to check
for this is to use the dnf repoquery command, in this case on Fedora
since that's where the package is present and query-able.

[root@f37-container:~]# dnf repoquery --quiet --info webkit2gtk4.0 |
grep --max-count 1 Source
Source       : webkitgtk-2.38.0-3.fc37.src.rpm

Alternatively, you can search for the package name in the Fedora
Packages web app.

https://packages.fedoraproject.org/search?query=webkit2gtk4.0

This returns one result, which shows webkit2gtk4.0 as a "subpackage"
of webkitgtk.  That's another way to describe the source/binary
relationship.

https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/webkitgtk/webkit2gtk4.0/

Whichever way you discover the source name, use that as the component
for your bugzilla request.
