Bug Description

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

The icon for Epiphany does not show up on the menu. To make it appear do the following

1) install epiphany-browser
2) right click menu bar and select edit menus (alacarte)
3) go to the Internet entry and notice how epiphany has an enabled tick.
4) untick it, then tick it again
5) upon exiting you now have your epiphany icon back.

All that however should not be needed.

not confirming the issue but that could be the well known race between the menu item and binary unpacking

I have done it on a few machines now and if it is a race condition, this package hits it every time which seems strangely coincidental to me.

not so much since the data which has the desktop is installed before the binary
