Bug#986338: epiphany-browser: hangs after some navigation

[Jérémy Lal]

Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 3.38.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,

epiphany is my default browser on debian/sid, but since about a month,
it has become unusable: it hangs after some minutes of navigation on
normal websites.

nothing specific appears in journalctl when hangs happen.
