Ebuild and adaption to gnome-scheme for mozilla's includes has been done.
All extensions will be installed except net-monitor and find.
net-monitor requires dbus, which has been commented out in epiphany, so I did not install the extension.
Find is broken. This is more like a class-cast problem than an adaption.
So, I did not look further into it. My time' also short. ;-)
Attached are:
- patch for the extensions
- ebuild for the extensions

Personally I don't like so many USE-flags as most of them are for one-time-use
only. The dashboard seems to me like an enhancement, that will become a regular
feature in future. So why not simply build it in? You don't have to activate it
in the Extensions-menu!
We should keep this build-process as simple as possible. I think this is in
common with the epiphany developers.
No, the build process should be as flexible as possible while considering to be
easy-to-use. USE-flags are the central advantage of Gentoo, if you don't want
to have some, throw away Gentoo and join SuSe, Fedora etc.
Calm down! I don't like abuse of USE-Flags for features, which are so small,
that you don't even notice, that they are installed. If you are not able to
accept opinions and suggestion, then please stop posting here. We don't need
people, who try to slow down the evolution process! There are more important
things, e.g. moving from mozilla to firefox-sources to build epiphany.
Added this to cvs. Its p.masked since it depends on latest epiphany. I'm not
adding the dashboard extension since it is marked unstable and we don't
officially support it. Thank you for the label patch lars
Is there any reason why the adblock extension in disabled in this ebuild ?
I built this extension here and it works very fine !
First of all, adblock works. It compiles and I tested it. The filter does as
expected, but nonetheless epiphany crashes when closing it. At least on my
system.
This is not perfect and so I really discourage marking it stable.
The epiphany maintainers don't recommend to activate adblock before mozilla
1.8, due to several problems.
If you want it, simply add it to the extension-list in the ebuild.
I think it's a bug, is it?
It depends on the point of view and the severity. However, the cause is the
current mozilla-family. So take it or leave it.
