Epiphany 1.8.3-2 on archlinux is built against Python 2.4.1 I guess.
Also, the pygtk defs files are in the wrong directory, they're installed
in /opt/gnome, while pygtk keeps them in /usr.
I don't know about the extensions package, but it could be that one
isn't even rebuilt for the firefox 1.5 update, which could be
problematic.

New packages for epiphany and epiphany-extensions have been uploaded,
hope these problems are fixed.
