Ah thanks, that file does indeed contain my URL history, formatted in
XML.
I found the equivalent file for Epiphany, it's in
~/.gnome2/epiphany/ephy-history.xml.

Sadly, it seems that although epiphany uses an XML file too, it uses a
different format ! :o((((

Maybe there is a little utility somewhere that can convert from Galeon
XML to Epiphany's XML... otherwise, it's all lost :o(
