flathub / org.gnome.epiphany Goto Github PK

If I had recourse it would be very interesting

Ctrl + Shift + A should open a prompt to add an icon of the opened web page to the desktop. It doesnt.

When I press these keys, nothing happens.

I have checked it's only occuring from the flatpack release. Works fine if Epiphany is installed by RPM.

I don't know if it's possible to do such a trick from inside a flatpak contained app, but I have hope it is! 🙏
I'm on fedora (Linux fedora 5.13.7-200.fc34.x86_64)

When I click the "View page source" button, a XDG portal dialog is shown, asking which browser I want to use to view some local, generated html file. When I select Web, the original page is opened, but without any CSS or images. It looks like Epiphany in Flatpak is generating this garbled html file instead of the correct file containing the visualised source code.

The flatpak version of epiphany is 3.36.2 while the gitlab version is 3.36.4. Maybe the automatic updates are not working so well or are not implemented for the stable release.

I reported on GNOMES's GitLab, Versions differ from flathub and gitlab, about this problem and was requested to post here. The interesting thing is the recommendation in README.md to install the "latest" stable version under flatpak.

Sites like Youtube when used to play videos on Wayland.
XWayland works properly

Hello, I am on Web 41.3 Flatpak version.
In private mode, it is said :
You are currently browsing in private mode. The pages consulted in this way do not appear in your browsing history and any information in memory will be destroyed when you close the window.

However, if I go on History menu I have all my browsing experience even after closing the window.
Could you please check and feedback if this issue is confirmed on your side ? Thank you very much

Problem : When connecting to Firefox sync , you get something like org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown
Because of that, it's impossible to sync

• passwords this other issue
• bookmarks this other issue
• tabs and so on.

Found a fix
Works for me :

1. Install Flatseal flatpak install flathub com.github.tchx84.Flatseal
2. Run Flatseal flatpak run com.github.tchx84.Flatseal
3. Go to Gnome web / epiphany tab
4. Enable D-Bus session bus option
5. Restart Gnome web app

All done.
If I have time, I'll try to code a pull request for it to be a default option, but I honestly have no idea of how to do it now.

It seems this Flatpak doesn't run on Mobian, a version of Debian for mobile Linux devices. The Debian package runs just fine, but this Flatpak repeatedly displays this issue in the Terminal:

(epiphany:2): epiphany-WARNING **: 09:25:31.593: Web process crashed
flatpak-spawn: Invalid byte sequence in conversion input
Try "flatpak-spawn --help" for more information.

Referencing #3, I can also report that the password manager is currently not working in elementaryOS 5.1.4. (Hera). Epiphany Version is 3.36.1 (Flathub) and xdg-desktop-portal 1.6 is installed. Epiphany offers to store passwords, but there is no data shown in the settings menu.

Hey, I have these screenshots (attached) that I think are better than the current one because they are more updated and align more on how the app looks now. If its OK to update them, can you please point me to the appdata XML source or update them?



"

Using Endless OS 3.3.12 I can't save passwords using Epiphany. I have Firefox account sync set up and the journal has a lot of 'Failed to store password record for xxxx timeout was reached' and 'Failed to search secrets in password secrets timeout was reached' records. I also get an "Invalid unclassed pointer in cast to 'EphyPasswordsDialog'"

It's entirely possible that this is due to a 'too old' or 'too wrong' host system in some fashion. Very happy to try and fix that.

currently it's not added

Thanks for this Flatpak!

Somehow, despite everything seeming correctly linked to 43.tar.xz in the json, the downloaded flatpak app is still 42.4 and the version displayed on flathub is still 42.4. https://beta.flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.Epiphany

Not sure how to solve this or I would have opened a PR, sorry!

So far so good, but storing bookmarks seems not to work. Neither the star icon nor the shortcut are working.

When I download a file, everything is alright from UI, but clicking the file does nothing and nor does clicking the folder icon.

I tried doing a system-wide search for the file (including hidden files) but with no result. Downloading two files adds a “(1)” at the end.

On both elementary OS 5.1 and 6 it stays like this but idk if it's anything with the elementary OS or the flatpak version itself.

Terminal output:
`(epiphany:2): epiphany-WARNING **: 20:20:43.138: Web process crashed
flatpak-spawn: Invalid byte sequence in conversion input
Try "flatpak-spawn --help" for more information.

Note that the directories

'/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share'
'/home/veysel/.var/app/org.gnome.Epiphany/data/flatpak/exports/share'

are not in the search path set by the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable, so
applications installed by Flatpak may not appear on your desktop until the
session is restarted.

Hi,

After updating to version 44, I can no longer launch Web from the desktop entry in the application overview.

Launching from a terminal using flatpak run org.gnome.Epiphany works fine.

I see the same behaviour on both my machines and I confirmed on the second that I could still launch Web via the icon on the second machine before upgrading to 44.

I have tried another application (org.gnome.TextEditor) using the 44 runtime to confirm that it can launch from the desktop entry successfully.

I have tried completely removing and reinstalling Web.

I'm using Debian 11.6 with Flatpak 1.10.7.

I'm not sure what to try next and would welcome advice!

Cheers,
Phil

stays on infinite loading

in this flatpak, there's:

• /app/bin/granite-7-demo (with broken stylesheet)
• /app/lib/pkgconfig: granite-7.pc libportal-gtk4.pc libportal.pc
• /app/lib/debug/ (empty folder)
• /app/include/ (headers for libportal and granite)
• some stuff in share too

Every time Epiphany is started, a new epiphany process is created. These don't stop when the program is closed, so I end up with many epiphany processes running at once.

Attempting to switch to "Dark Mode" in the latest Flatpak leaves it in light mode. Do not experience this problem with native version. Installed 1.10.7 on Debian Bullseye.
