Bug Description
Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
Epiphany is gaining more and more momentum, so it shouldn't depend on Firefox anymore but on libxul, like in Debian.

Thank you for your bug. The default browser on Ubuntu is firefox which is actively maintained, xulrunner is to universe. To build epiphany with xulrunner we would have to promote it to main which would mean lot of extra work. Since building with firefox or xulrunner makes almost no difference for the user we will not do the change, closing the request
