Hi!

This sounds like an exception in libvoikko not in Epiphany. Epiphany is
not even linked with libvoikko so the problem may be in webkit,
webkitgtk or even in enchant.

Cheers

epiphany throws an exception at startup

Francis Moreau — 2012-04-16T18:08:56

Hello,

I'm getting a exception when starting epiphany.

Here's the trace:

GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend.  Your settings
will not be saved or shared with other applications.
terminate called after throwing an instance of
'libvoikko::setup::DictionaryException'
terminate called recursively

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

Could anybody tell me what could be wrong ?

Thanks

gnome 3.4 smooth scrolling

2012-05-01T20:19:44

Hi all,

I recently upgraded to Gnome 3.4 and I'm pleased to see the improvements of epiphany.
Gnome's smooth scrolling is awesome on gedit and nautilus, but it seems to be missing on this web browser.
Is there anything planned about this?

Cheers,
Clément Guérin

Re: Adblock broken after 3.4 upgrade

Xan Lopez — 2012-05-01T20:17:25

There's a completely new adblock extension in 3.4, but you need to
install epiphany-extensions 3.4 to get it. Are you using this?

Is there a reason why a Chromium license was imported into the repo 3 years
ago?

GSOC Introduction

William Ting — 2012-05-01T06:56:33

Hi everybody!

I was lucky enough to be selected by GNOME to work on Epiphany for Google
Summer of Code this year. I'm responsible for implementing browser
synchronization and look forward to working with you guys over the next few
months. :)

I've posted a project page here:

    http://wting.github.com/epiphany/

Feel free to comment on any items within Wiki or Trello. I will be working
on feature branches and pushing to my copy of Epiphany on GitHub, before
submitting patches to the team when I have a section finished.

I've provided some preliminary mockups of the planned interfaces:

    https://github.com/wting/epiphany/wiki/User-Interface

I look forward to any comments or suggestions.

Cheers,

William Ting

Adblock broken after 3.4 upgrade

David Thomson — 2012-05-01T03:13:09

Hi all

I have recently upgraded epiphany (and the rest of gnome) to 3.4 on my Arch
setup.

The new epiphany is great but the adblock extension has stopped working...
any ideas?

It been a long time since I've used the internet without an adblocker I
didn't realise how many annoying ads there are!!!

cheers

Re: Epiphany crashes reliably

Carson Chittom — 2012-04-28T12:40:23


Sorry, I'm no longer using Epiphany (or even GNOME).  There were just
too many gotchas and segfaults--granted I was using an older version on
a non-Linux OS.

Re: Epiphany crashes reliably

Xan Lopez — 2012-04-28T10:27:15

Hi, and sorry for the late reply,

the error seems indeed to come from libsoup, but getting a trace would
still be useful. Also, the version you are using is pretty old
already, so using 3.4.1 would be recommended. It's quite possible that
the bug has been fixed since.

Re: GSOC Conflict?

Xan Lopez — 2012-04-24T13:24:01

Hi William (and Yann, who I'm CCing)


Yeah, I was informed about this in case I thought it would be a
problem, and I answered that I think we could manage. We have two
options, as you suggest:

- We can have you both work on the Data Sync project, trying to either
have you both cooperate closely on the same tasks or split the work in
a way that allows you to work more or less independently.

- One of you can choose to work on the other idea we sent to SoC, a
security daemon to warn users about dangerous content. You can see the
proposal here, http://live.gnome.org/SummerOfCode2012/Ideas, name is
"A service to prevent phishing attacks".

I think both are reasonably similar in terms of complexity and the
skills needed to develop them, so that should not be an issue. If
either one or you wants to do the security daemon and you can agree
about that I think we are settled (and we would deliver more features
in the end), otherwise if you both prefer to work on data sync we
could try to make the scope a bit more

GSOC Conflict?

William Ting — 2012-04-24T05:18:27

Hi,

I'm excited to be working on Epiphany in the next few months. However I
noticed in the accepted student proposal list there were two projects both
implementing Epiphany synchronization:

   - https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2012/wting/8001
   -
   https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2012/yann_soubeyrand/11001

Will Yann and I be working together on one project or developing our
projects individually? I'm fine with either prospect, but would like some
clarification.

- William

gsoc proposal

calvin — 2012-04-06T15:42:15

Hi,
This is my proposal for the gsoc:

     What is your e-mail address and IRC nick?

Email: chenmingyang.ict< at >gmail.com

IRC nick: calvin

·     Do you have a web page, blog, or microblog?

Yes, this is my blog:http://blog.csdn.net/lishirui

·     What is your academic background?

I'm a graduate student in Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese
Academy of Sciences, China. My research interests focus on computer
graphics and computer architecture (especially the memory systems).

·     What is the ultimate goal of your proposal?

Append “data sync” feature to Epiphany:

    1.Make it possible for different instances of Epiphany and Firefox to
share user data.

    2.The data includes bookmarks, history,session state and cookies

·      What components/modules will the proposed or modify or create?

We will create a sync module for the client, which will store   user data
to the server and download it from the server.

·      What benefits does your proposed work have for GNOME and its
community

ruby

Eike Dierks — 2012-04-08T01:07:31

Dear people at the epiphany list,

I'd like to suggest to bring ruby in the house.

Obviously a lot of discussion has been done about this topic,
wether we should bring this or that scripting language in here.

We have this very same topic on the freebsd list.

I want to opt for ruby
to make this a well known language within webkit

Because ruby rocks!
And I believe ruby1.9 to be somehow stable.


So let's work together,
to make ruby2 the common language
of webkit and freebsd.

Re: gsoc proposal

calvin — 2012-04-06T15:50:57

I'm looking forward to your comments.

Best regards,

Re: Some questions concerning GSoC 2012

Phitherek_ — 2012-04-03T16:36:23

Thank you for your help. I think that the Gnome 3.4 Live under VirtualBox
option will suit me best, because I do not build much from source, rather
from Arch repos, where all the programs have been also defaulted to Python
3, so the VirtualBox option is just safer for me.
I am still waiting for an answer to my 2 other questions, though. And I
still hope to get answer from you.

Re: Some questions concerning GSoC 2012

William Ting — 2012-04-03T12:14:48


ArchLinux defaults to Python 3. This causes a problem with older
Python programs since they link to the Python 3 interpreter when
they're expecting a Python 2 interpreter. Newer scripts should be
using `#!/usr/bin/env python2` (or python3) instead of `#!/usr/bin/env
python`.

Since pretty much all new Python 3 programs refer to the python3
interpreter explicitly, you can safely default your system back to
Python 2. In other words:

sudo rm -v /usr/bin/python
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python

This is a much easier alternative than modifying all build scripts to
use the Python 2 interpreter.

Some questions concerning GSoC 2012

Phitherek_ — 2012-04-02T22:25:42

Hello,
I am a student, who is considering taking part in Google Summer of Code
2012. I have chosen your organization as probably a future mentoring
organization. I have not submitted the proposal, as I want to ask you some
questions about your expectations. I am posting this on the epiphany list,
because the idea of Epiphany Sync interested me as the project I maybe
would like to work on. And as the #epiphany channel on IRC seems dead, I
decided to try with a mailing list, as I heard they are the most commonly
used tool to communicate in bigger open source project.
1. I want to know, what time would you expect me to spend on the project (I
mean kind of schedule). The problem is, that I have my exam period when the
first period of GSoC programming starts, and as I am on my first year of
studies, this period will be very hard and I will sure have to devote much
time for it. Is it possible for me to do less coding on the start and then,
after my exam period, do more? I know, that GSoC is supposed to be a
full-t

Sakshi,

what operating system version are you running?  Which module set (http://live.gnome.org/Jhbuild/Modulesets) are you attempting to build?  Can you send the last lines of the build output that precede the error you're seeing?

Re: Preferred build environment? Development branch?

Adam Dingle — 2012-04-02T15:38:27

I think that's really up to you, and what's easiest will depend on what 
operating system version you're running.  If you run a leading-edge 
distro such as Fedora 17 (currently in alpha) or Ubuntu 12.04 (currently 
in beta), all the dependencies you need will be there already - you can 
simply pull the Epiphany sources and build.  If your operating system is 
one release older (e.g. Fedora 16 or Ubuntu 11.10), you'll probably need 
to build WebKit and possibly other libraries as well.  I personally find 
it much easier to run a new-ish operating system, where almost all 
dependencies are built for me, than to wrestle with jhbuild.
