Liferea right now doesn't support SOCKS proxies. In Debian bug #272178 David Smith hints on how to workaround this. Full quote: Just some information for people wanting to use Liferea with SOCKS. I'd strongly recommend that you install the ... [More] package redsocks. I've found that this works perfectly, not only for liferea, but for *ALL* other applications whether they support SOCKS or not, to tunnel all their traffic through a SOCKS (or SSH Tunnel) server. It is no longer necessary, today, to build SOCKS support into every network application, even if you *MUST* use SOCKS. For this reason, it's unlikely liferea will ever get SOCKS support. There's just no reason for it. I've just completed testing of liferea + redsocks through a SOCK5 connection created inside an SSH tunnel and it works just fine. I used the guide available here: http://dtbaker.com.au/random-bits/redirect-all-traffic-through-transparent-socks5-proxy-in-linux.html Thanks for your time. [Less]

This is a new maintenance release of the 1.8 branch. This release makes Liferea compatible to the changes in the TinyTinyRSS 1.6 API. If you are using TinyTinyRSS please upgrade! Here are the changes: * Fixes SF #1041: Some GPLv2 license headers ... [More] were outdated (reported by Emmanuel Seyman) * Fixes SF #1044: tt-rss API changed (we now support only 1.6 API) (patch by Sebastian Noel) * Fixes XHTML errors caused by extra tags from tt-rss * Update of German translation Grab the newest release from http://lzone.de/liferea/.

Syncing Liferea against the TinyTinyRSS news aggregator broke with the release of version 0.6 of TinyTinyRSS because of API cleanups. Thanks to a patch from Sebastian Noel it is now possible to sync to all version from TinyTinyRSS 1.5.3 to most recent 1.6.2. The fix was released with Liferea 1.8.12. Please upgrade!

This releases makes Liferea compatible to the changed TinyTinyRSS 1.6 API

Current Liferea versions up to 1.8.11 do provide a link to feedvalidator.org upon feed parsing errors. The idea is for end-users to be able to verify correctness/well-formedness of the feed formats as provided by different websites/blogs. While Sam ... [More] Ruby's feedvalidator.org (from my point of view) did always provide a correct analysis of the feeds it was recently reported to deliver malware. It might be that the malware detection by Google is bogus (see current Google report showing 5 malicious pages on 29.12.2012), but to eliminate this error class altogether I decided to drop the link. Until you upgrade to a newer version of Liferea: Please do not use the feed validation link! [Less]

This is a new bugfix release. It fixes a problem with the browser preferences and a Google Reader notification issue. It removed feedvalidator.org support because of a malware alert.
