I understand your concern, but the problem is that liferea is a gnome app, just to help you a little here, liferead supports many different types of RSS feeds which are basically updates from a website. The other types listed there are the other types of updates a website can give out, so if you stumble across one, you can use liferea to get updates from that site. I'll forward this one upstream and see what response they give :) status confirmed importance low -- Regards, Vikram Dhillon "I think, therefore I am" -- Descartes ** Package changed: software-center (Ubuntu) => ubuntu ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided => Low -- Description for Liferea is geeky https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/602815 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
