You should file a bug against that package in the Fedora
bugzilla.

Indeed. Better yet, provide a improved RPM specfile. That's
quite easy, 
if you can build epiphany-extensions from the command line
then you can 
adjust a specfile.

Basically the problem is that the e-e package build scripts
for most 
distros don't use --with-extensions=all, for various
reasons. Instead 
they contain a manually specified list of to-be-built
extensions. It is 
understandable that maintainers responsible for hundreds of
packages 
don't always have the time to study the changelogs in great
detail.

When a new epiphany-extensions release appears, the package
is often 
updated without updating the list of extensions. Somebody
who 
knows enough about the package should care for testing if
the new 
extensions work on the distro, eventually adjust the list of
required 
packages, and update the spec accordingly.
