Downgrading from RC according to what follows… (and could be even lower,
I guess.)

Hi Axel,

looking at the contents of this package, one can remark that:
| $ LANG=C dpkg -L debreaper|grep \\.orig
| package diverts others to: /usr/lib/libgnomeui-0/gnome_segv2.orig

so I guess that debreaper only works with applications that were
compiled against libgnomeui, which isn't the case of either xosview or
liferea. The description might mention that fact, I assume.

Mraw,
KiBi.
