Hi,

Today I was debugging the failing autopkgtest of liferea, a graphical rss reader, on s390x [1]. Previously I already worked around another crash that happens on s390x only. Although I wonder how useful a desktop application like liferea is on such an architecture, I tried to get it to work. Luckily dogtail (the framework I use to drive the test) has screenshot functionality and I noticed that after requesting the help or the FAQ, there is no text in the window that on other architectures shows the content of the help/FAQ. Once the tests for 1.15.6-2 or higher run on ci.debian.net, the screenshots will be part of the artifacts tar that can be downloaded from the web page.

I'm suspecting that something in the lower layers is broken, but I have absolutely no evidence. Filing this bug just for visibility. For avoidance of doubt, I consider here 3 things (which I suspect are related):
1) the crash in the "liferea.dump()" call is highly suspicious
2) the button for the Help should be the same across architectures
3) the screenshots for the help and FAQ should show the content
