GNOME web browser installation

Well, it turns out that GNOME not only has an incredibly smooth and easy-to-use interface, but they also have their own browser! It's called Epiphany. Strange name. Good browser.

If you go to GNOME.org, it'll tell you how to install. I tried it their way. It didn't work. You will want to install it their way so you can use it. Now we need to fix it. So, what you'll want to do is go to "System--->Administration--->Synaptic Package Manager".

Now that you're on the S.P.M. screen, go to "Edit--->Fix broken packages". Now, you'll have to scroll down all the way to epiphany. Now, just check the boxes for Epiphany web browser. Make sure it's not the game Epiphany! Just click on the thing that says Epiphany and it'll tell you in the description if it's for the game or the browser.

Check everything for Epiphany web browser. Now apply changes. Once the installation is finished, just go to "Applications--->Internet--->Epiphany Web Browser". That's it. You're done.


Hope this helped you guys out,
