Bug Description

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

Looking at the Debian-Ubuntu patch, I notice that the "Recommends:" field in epiphany-browser-dbg has been removed. I think it would be better to change the field to firefox-dbg, as this is the equivalent of libxul0d-dbg.

Thank you for your bug, ubuntu uses dbgsym packages which are built for everything and apport knows what to install to retrace crashes, not sure that we should spent efforts on changing the dbg recommends. There is a spec about not distribution those

I see, so maybe the -dbg packages could be got rid of completely? Perhaps this would be too big a change from Debian.

the change should not require a source package change but rather be something automated like the dbgsym builds

  * debian/control.in:
    - epiphany-browser-dbg recommends firefox-dbg (LP: #174445)
  * debian/patches/07_use_correct_program_name.patch:
    - dropped, not required since there is an epiphany-browser alternative now,
      and fixes the help directory (LP: #175157)
  * debian/rules:
    - use the same gecko directory naming than debian
