There wasn't, but I think there is now.  Garnome did not configure the
package correctly, i.e. it did not know that the configrue script
needs an extra parameter, and didn't create it.  Thus, there were no
extensions to compile, and it correctly didn't compile any.

Configuring, compiling and installing manually seems to have fixed the
problem (though I can't really test it, as the computer with Garnome
is at work, and Epiphany doesn't seem to like to run remotely over
X11.  Any thoughts on that?).

The output is now:

[extensions-manager-ui]

but before it was blank.

It is now.  There are also .la files.  

Thanks for the clues.  I believe that this works now, and I'll let the
Garnome guys know that they need to fix their Makefile.

Sincerely,
Eric
