Here is what apt on unstable has to say about it:
Code:
jim@jimsworktop:~$ apt-cache search epiphany
epiphany - clone of Boulder Dash game
epiphany-browser - Intuitive GNOME web browser
epiphany-browser-dev - Development files for Epiphany web browser
epiphany-data - required maps for epiphany game
epiphany-extensions - Extensions for Epiphany web browser
kerry - Beagle desktop search daemon frontend for KDE
libmozjs-dev - Development files for the Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScript library
libmozjs0d - The Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScript library
libmozjs0d-dbg - Development files for the Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScript library
peercast-handlers - P2P audio and video streaming handlers
You could try to install java direct from sun, if you can find something like the plugin directory that exists in all mozilla browsers, it might work. Is there some reason you're bound to epiphany? I've never used it, it might be great, but are you staying away from iceweasel, firefox, mozilla, opera for some reason?
Peace,
