Package: epiphany-webkit Version: 2.22.3-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
i don't believe that epiphany-webkit is ready to be included in a stable release yet. yes, it can render webpages, and now even supports plugins, but there are enough issues, which are not that severe individually, but combined make the browser unusable. it would be a shame for users to end up having a bad experience with this alpha-quality software if it were to be included in an "official" release. the issues that, when combined, make this problem grave are: http://bugs.debian.org/452762 - text resized does not work http://bugs.debian.org/464481 - ignores proxy settings http://bugs.debian.org/467237 - find in page does not work http://bugs.debian.org/467237 - cannot open links in new tabs http://bugs.debian.org/476858 - print menu doesn't work http://bugs.debian.org/467859 - cannot open links in new window http://bugs.debian.org/490780 - no help if yelp not installed http://bugzilla.gnome.org/525683 - keyword search doesn't work http://bugzilla.gnome.org/529047 - doesn't store cookies http://bugzilla.gnome.org/532510 - spelling/grammar functions don't work http://bugzilla.gnome.org/532678 - remember passwords doesn't work i think epiphany-webkit is great, and thanks for all the hard work, but i just don't think its ready to be in a stable release. i think that the epiphany-webkit package should be hinted out of testing. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages epiphany-webkit depends on: ii dbus 1.2.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii epiphany-browser-data 2.22.3-1 Data files for the GNOME web brows ii gnome-icon-theme 2.22.0-1 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii iso-codes 3.1-1 ISO language, territory, currency, ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.20-2 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libavahi-client3 0.6.23-2 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common3 0.6.23-2 Avahi common library ii libavahi-gobject0 0.6.23-2 Avahi GObject library ii libbonobo2-0 2.22.0-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.22.0-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.7-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.6.4-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.76-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.7-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.3.1-8 GCC support library ii libgconf2-4 2.22.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.2-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.5-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2 2.22.3-1 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome2-0 2.20.1.1-1 The GNOME 2 library -
