Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.14.2.1-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have a weird problem since some days, I don't really know what
triggered this.
I currently use epiphany with -n switch as my default browser
(x-www-browser). I added a wrapper script to run:
epiphany -n $@
which is linked to x-www-browser.
I run epiphany from my xfce4-terminal, from evolution or from liferea.
They call x-www-browser <url>. When I first clic on an url from any of
these places, it doesnt detect a currently running epiphany instance if
it has been started by another way. For example if I clic on an url in
liferea, it runs epiphany, open the url in a new tab. Then I clic on an
url in a terminal, and it tries to run another epiphany instance. I get
the "crash recovering" popup window, and a message in .xsession-errors:
(epiphany-browser:13149): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Failed to create
service browser: Bad state
Even if I run epiphany -n <url> from a terminal, it doesnt work and
displays this message.
Maybe the problem is in gnome-vfs, I don't really know.
Thanks for any advice about this issue.
Regards,
