[arch-general] epiphany does not add url during ssl acceptance
Just curious if anyone else is running into this small problem? Basically when adding an exception to a unverified ssl site I have to manually put the url into the location text field rather than it populating automatically like firefox. Thanks

This is a nice limitation in the gecko embedded engine. Somehow epiphany can't get the URL over there, so you'll have to fill it in yourself.

Yes I have seen this... I've been too lazy to check if it was my problem or a bug, but now I can confirm it. I don't use epiphany that much, just to log in to the campus network and don't screw up my firefox tabs. I assume this is an upstream bug? Cheers! -- mitoyarzun http://www.archlinux.cl/

This is not a bug, it's a limitation in the gecko engine and its embedding. I guess it will go away when epiphany switches to webkit.
