Thanks Emilio and Alexander. Output of dpkg -l "liferea*" "xulrunner-1.9*":

My system is up to date (I've been keeping up with Hardy packages as they appear, so just installed another load, which were mostly KDE PIM stuff). I reboot after each new batch of packages, whether this is required or not, though this has not made any difference to this problem. I've attached the output of strace -f -eopen liferea. I'm not running any accessibility tools, but this question is interesting, as I did recently install orca (though as I say I'm not running it). Perhaps I should uninstall it and see if that makes a difference (?). ** Attachment added: "liferea-strace.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13345696/liferea-strace.txt -- Liferea (Hardy) crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215016 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
