Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.30.6-2
Severity: important


When I start epiphany-browser, click in addres bar and press any letter to
write address, epiphany-browser crashes. On the terminal it writes:

** ERROR **: Error in signal marshal. Unable to convert argument of type:
** GdkEvent 

aborting...


I ran it with gdb. I got this. I hope it can help.
