Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 1.8.5-2
Severity: important
Hi,
ever since Epiphany was built using xulrunner it behaved strangely for me.
Sometimes it works seemingly normal, but this morning it happened again. The
symptoms are as follows:
* clicking on links seems to load them but (according to the progress bar) at
around 80% done it stops indefinitely without displaying anything
* the close buttons on tabs are clickable but have no effect
* text entry fields in forms don't work, no cursor appears when clicking them
(the one for searching on bugs.debian.org for example ;-) )
* the Extensions activation dialogue (Tools->Extensions) appears but you can't
do anything in it or even close it
* Epiphany itself is closeable though and doesn't appear to be stuck or
something
* strangely you can load websites in the first tab entering their URL though and
they will work
* on dict.leo.org the cursor in the entry field is stuck at the beginning so
that characters get inserted at the beginning all the time and I have to enter
words backwards (if this wasn't a bit annoying it would actually be funny)
Hope you can help, as Epiphany is my preferred browser and using Firefox or
Mozilla just isn't as comfortable.
Cheers,
Chris
P.S. I'd be glad to help debug this. Doesn't look like anyone else has these
problems.
