Package: liferea Version: 0.9.4-1 The network timeout in liferea is sometimes too low for feeds that take a long time to send data.
For example, I'm subscribed to <http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/d-i/trunk/?op=rss&rev=0&sc=0&isdir=1> for commit messages to the d-i repository. Sometimes the WebSVN feed takes very long to reply and liferea shows a 404 error. I've been setting NET_TIMEOUT to 60 seconds using attached patch and this seems to be working fine. I have no idea whether it could bring unwanted side effects, but it worked for me during the last two days. cheers, Max
