Bug#276343: epiphany-browser: 'open in new tab' results in invisible tab

[Lee Maguire]

Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 1.2.8-1
Severity: normal

When I select "Open Link in a New Window" from the right-click menu
(or use the middle mouse button on a link) nothing seems to happen.

Checking the Tabs menu, I can see entries for the tabs that should have
been created (with titles that suggest the page has loaded) but
selecting them from there just gives me a gray page.

This has manifested itself with an update in the last couple of days.

(Dependencies might contain some libraries from expimental needed by evolution)
