Bug#548396: epiphany-browser: large blank area, missing entries in location bar dropdown

[Zack Weinberg]

Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.28.0-3
Severity: normal

Since the GNOME 2.28 libraries started hitting the system, epiphany's location
bar dropdown has started showing a very large blank area instead of (most of)
the entries it should display.  I'm attaching a screen shot.  Depending on
what characters are typed, either the dropdown is entirely blank or there is
one entry visible, but I have yet to see more than one visible entry.  The
blank area is insensitive to mouse clicks.  Clearing history does not help.

This was also visible with epiphany-gecko (2.26.x) on top of some subset of
the 2.28 platform, as of yesterday, but I don't care if that gets fixed.
