What Could Go Wrong
---
epiphany is not seeded in any Ubuntu desktop flavor so users are likely to
have another web browser available if things were to go wrong and know how to
install it.
As a component of GNOME core, there is a micro-release exception for
- evolution-data-server
+ epiphany-browser
