Description W. Michael Petullo 2017-07-30 19:03:06 UTC 
I have for some time used Firefox to interact with various websites which require the use of a client-side certificate (and private key) which is stored on a smartcard. I would like to see epiphany extended to support this.

For some notes on configuring Firefox and other software to interact with the smartcards I use, see:

    https://www.flyn.org/notes/smartcard/

I have seen some evidence that this was once supported by Epiphany as an extension:

    http://pkg-coolkey.alioth.debian.org/

However, this method is no longer viable due to the deprecation of the epiphany-extensions package:
