Thanks, that worked. A purge of the introspection data<BR>
package (gir1.2-epiphany-2.29) caused the extensions-more<BR>
package to be removed (on my permission):<BR>
<BR>
The following packages have unmet dependencies:<BR>
epiphany-extensions-more: Depends: gir1.2-epiphany-2.29 but it is not going to be installed.<BR>
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:<BR>
<BR>
Remove the following packages:<BR>
1) epiphany-extensions-more <BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] Y<BR>
<BR>
Sure enough, after removing those two epiphany started back up.<BR>
I was going nuts with strace and ltrace, comparing where epiphany<BR>
started waiting on a FUTEX in the 'bad' trace and where the same<BR>
wait got posted and things kept moving in the 'good' trace (of<BR>
starting epiphany with a blank page in the VNC session). <BR>
<BR>
It was very curious (OK, it was maddening) that one user could successfully <BR>
start epiphany and the other one couldn't, they are on the same machine.<BR>
That led me to look into epiphany data in the home directories of each<BR>
user and there wasn't much to glean from that.<BR>
<BR>
Should this bug be transferred to gir1.2-epiphany-2.29 or <BR>
epiphany-extensions-more? I think it should go to one of the two, <BR>
it's very nasty.<BR>
