Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

Many, but not all, webpages, no longer scroll correctly with Page Up and
Page Down keys. Instead, pressing one of the keys causes the window to
flicker very briefly, and then the window is re-drawn at the original
point, instead of one screen up or down.

http://puzzling.org/logs/tech/2007/January/ is one example, for me. Page
Down seems to select the next hyperlink, rather than the next screen of
information, but imperfectly. Up and down keys have similar effects.

Scrolling up or down by dragging the scroll bar or using the scroll
wheel on my mouse works correctly.

This behaviour is in Edgy, latest packages, and has been present for a
couple of weeks, not the entire release. It has survived a complete
restart of X.

** Affects: epiphany-browser (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
