Heh :-) . I usually do that so I can come back to them at any time I want

cache, but at the same moment we have a cache limit that the merging
algorithm has to cope with. And the current calculation is simple: if the
cache limit is 100 (like in your case and per default) and there are 100
(or more) flagged items that must never be dropped, then there is just
no room to add new items.
kaboom :-)
As a temporary workaround you should increase the cache limit for
all affected feeds (like the Debian Planet feed).
I have, but it seems it already "lost" some of the items of the day...
I'll probably change the limit first, then upgrade once more to the new
format ;-) .
If this works for you, please let me know. I'll then downgrade this
report's severity but leave it open as a hint for others.
Yes, it does, but why hide/bury it?
Probably Lars will provide a fix soon and the problem will still be visible on an Etch->Lenny
upgrade, if missed. I'd say there isn't a need for a severity downgrade, especially since the bug
"looks" like is unreproducible at a first glance.
(BTW, I'll probably send another BR about it disrupting with my desire to
have low battery consumption since it does polling and wakes up the CPU
rather often.)
Does it? We had a round of updates back in 1.2 dealing with this. According
to powertop we got down to a rather acceptable level, IIRC.
I will look into this. I was surely talking about the previous version I had installed which was pre
1.2. But since the updates issue prevented me from using liferea, it also prevented me from
observing if this is still true.
Will look into it. Please interpret no answer/new BR as a confirmation of your
words ;-) .
