Ah didn't see README.Debian. I haven't further debugged it, but if it worked for
you maybe I just didn't setup correctly. Is it enough to enable the extension,
or does one need to setup anything else? I looked at preferences and didn't find
anything related. If it's working fine, we should create the
gwget.ephy-extension to have it working.

To upstream since it's an upstream bug, and to the BTS so we're aware of it for
the Squeeze release (since the package was unusable for me).

Not really :) I just looked at it to fix the FTBFS bug, and while testing it
before uploading it to the archive I noticed the gwget problems.

Cheers!
