Description Claessens Xavier 2004-12-23 01:47:43 UTC
Mozilla just upgraded to 1.7.5 in stable branch x86, but last stable of epiphany (1.4.6) isn't 100% compatible with the new mozilla API.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Update Mozilla 1.7.5
2.Install Epiphany 1.4.6
3.

Actual Results:  
Mouse events like right button and wheel click are not catched by epiphany.
Maybe others incompatibilities....

Expected Results:  
Right click shoud open a menu with things like "save image as...". Middel click
shoud open link in a new tab.

There is 3 solutions:
1) mark Mozilla-1.7.5 ~x86
2) mark Epiphany-1.4.7 x86 (it fix all problems, i've just tried)
3) patch epiphany-1.4.6 ....

I suggest solution 2 ;)

>patch epiphany-1.4.6

It is patched. You need to recompile it making sure the epiphany-1.4.6-moz-nsiurip.patch is applied. I have tested that patch for epiphany-1.4.6 compiled against moz-1.7.5 and it works fine, solving the odd behavior you mention.
