That file is created when you make your first shortcut, I think.
Otherwise, the lack-of-file is treated as equivalent to an empty-file.
Or, you could just create that file manually.  The format is one
entry per line, looking like:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=%s wp
Strictly speaking, that white space is actually a tab, but I don't
think that that's important.

I'd guess that your preferred browser (according to GNOME) is Firefox,
rather than Epiphany.  Yeah, I never got around to doing it for my
not-browser-of-choice.  You're going to have to get used to me
promising more than I deliver.  :-)

automatically (yes, I know, it should), so you might have to log out /
log in, or remove / add Deskbar, or something like that.
