The issue mentioned in the bug report was easy enough to fix, just a
matter of changing the version specified to configure in debian/rules .
Unfortunately after doing that the build failed in a different error.
cp: cannot stat
`./debian/tmp/usr/lib/epiphany-browser/2.29/extensions/': No such file
or directory
dh_install: cp -a ./debian/tmp/usr/lib/epiphany-browser/2.29/extensions/
debian/epiphany-extension-gwget//usr/lib/epiphany-browser/2.29/ returned
exit code 1
make: *** [binary-install/epiphany-extension-gwget] Error 2
That was solved with a small modification to configure.ac . Some build
system changes were made so that the autotools stuff is now generated as
part of the build processes and removed in clean.
The attatched patch makes the aforementioned changes to the package
