Description Diego Escalante Urrelo (not reading bugmail) 2010-02-11 17:54:32 UTC 
It's just a path mistake, now that we don't use mozilla anymore. Although we
still use the same cookie database schema.

Use the correct Epiphany cookies file

Since the WebKit migration our cookies are in .gnome2/epiphany, they are the
same format than Firefox cookies.

Ping?

I have fallen into that trap a few minutes ago.
The attachment would fix it.
Comment 4 Owen Taylor 2010-06-05 14:40:43 UTC 
I'm applying a very similar patch that I got in email from Jonathon Jongsma;
the main reason for preferring it is it handles both locations.

(Yes, probably the combination of git-using-developer and
Gecko-based-Epiphany is empty at this point, but it's little
extra code.)

The following fix has been pushed:

Add support for epiphany with the webkit backend

When they moved to webkit as the browser engine, epiphany changed the location
of their cookies database, but the format remained the same.  This patch adds
support for the new location, but falls back to the old location if the new one
doesn't exist.
