+Updating the epiphany.defs file
+-------------------------------
+
+Pygtk wraps most functions itself automatically, it uses the
+epiphany.defs file, this must be kept in-sync with the epiphany includes.
+To update the file:
+
+ - Install gnome-python so that you have the "h2def.py" script
+
+ - Ensure that the installed epiphany include directory is uptodate
+ (i.e. it doesn't contain any stale ephy header)
+
+ - Run "python /path/to/h2def.py /path/to/include/epiphany-1.5/epiphany/* > epiphany.defs
+
+ - You MUST now compare to see what has changed, e.g. the above command has the
+ following problems:
+ - It misses boxed types
+ - It doesn't mark interfaces correctly
+ - You need to ensure that no is-constructor-of lines have been lost
+
+ - Basically, just do a cvs diff and fix things up as appropriate.
+
+ - Finally ensure it compiles, but that's obvious, right? :-)
+
+You could also make all the changes manually, but it's easier to use
+the above process.
