Your email address was listed as contact for Epiphany in the
epiphany-1.0.7/README.

Some implementations of mkdir(2) don't like a trailing slash.

  ** ERROR **: Couldn't mkdir /home/reed/.gnome2/epiphany/favicon_cache/

Hopefully the following patch doesn't break how the directory is used
later.

I removed my .gnome2 directories and it worked fine.

Now I see the epiphany is not working for www.linux.com and www.nba.com
websites. I guess it is hanging at some flash or other add-on. (I assume
this is unrelated to my patch, although I never noticed before.

** (epiphany-bin:13603): WARNING **: Web browser gnome icon not found

** (epiphany-bin:13603): WARNING **: Throbber animation not found

I am not sure what the filename is for icon so I don't know if it
is there or not. (probably the errors should show the actual file name.).


If there is a mailing list or other place to report bugs or comments
please list them in the README.
