Liferea works with any compatible gtkmozembed.so providing package. If you have a Firefox or Mozilla suite somewhere it might work with it. But it is not guaranteed to do so. The unresolved dependency can be explained by the "liferea" start script which sets up additional paths before starting the "liferea-bin" binary. If you set the same paths ldd should be able to resolve the library. > P.S.: Since I started this e-mail, I am deleting various packages that > were pulled in with the installation of liferea and it seems to work > well without those, namely: > > libnspr4 libgtkhtml2-0 liferea-gtkhtml libgail17 libgail-common > > which is a nice thing to keep things small and simple in one's system. libgail* is not used by Liferea. I'm not sure about libnspr4. Lars
