utf-8 in epiphany-webkit is broken

[Dennis Prochko]

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

The unicode web page (<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">) renders with unappropriate symbols similar to wrong encoding selected. Manual selecting "UTF-8" encoding with menu View -> Text Encoding -> Other... did not affect. See the screenshot.

could you try on jaunty if that's still an issue there?

[Dennis Prochko (wolfsoft)]

Sorry, but in the jaunty repository there is no epiphany-webkit package anymore :(

Just have tried Midori 0.1.2 (uses libwebkit-1.0.1-4). All fine, the bug is gone.
