Package: rss2email
Version: 1:3.8-1
Severity: normal
Each time it is used to update list of feeds, r2e rewrites
rss2email.cfg, and neglects to preserve its file permissions when doing
so.
So, any rss2email user whose home directory is world readable, but who
has locked down the permissions of their feed list to avoid exposing
that private information, will have that defeated by r2e.
I suppose the workaround is to lock down the permissions of ~/.local and
~/.config

Hello
I've taken over rss2email maintainership, this is a mass answer to old
bugs to see if they apply to the latest version in sid (1:3.11-1).
Some of this bugs were reported when rss2email used python2, I hope
some of them are fixed just by using newer libraries and/or python
interpreter.
Therefore I ask you $reporter to verify if the bug still applies against
the latest version in sid, and if it does reopen the bug.
thanks!
