Comment 66 for bug 56610

If you do not want to wait for the fix to reach backports, you can grab the package from here: http://diego.aureal.com.pe/archives/2006/11/30/epiphany-patched-packages-edgy/ (download the first deb and install it with dpkg -i package.deb). Guess that deb has been built by the same Diego posting the diff here.
