Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
Steps to reproduce:
1) On webpage #1, click the middle mouse button on a link to open webpage #2 in
a new tab.
2) Switch to the new tab (with webpage #2 in it), middle-click on the Back
button to open webpage #1 in a new tab.
3) Switch to the third tab (with webpage #1 in it), middle-click on the Forward
button.
Expected result:
To have a new tab open with webpage #2 loaded into it.
Actual result:
A new tab opens, but it's blank (no URL loaded).
Middle-clicking the Back button in step 2 isn't necessary (left-clicking
will do just as well); I just did it to make it clear how differently
Back and Forward buttons seem to react to middle-clicking.
This happens on Hardy with updates (Epiphany 2.22.2), which is my actual
system, but I'm also able to reproduce this in Intrepid (Epiphany
2.23.91), and in Debian Lenny (Epiphany 2.22.3), both of which I run
inside VirtualBox (inside my actual system).
