(Seems to be introduced together with liferea-data in 1.4.26-2.) http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html#s-unpackphase states under point 4: "A directory will never be replaced by a symbolic link to a directory or vice versa; instead, the existing state (symlink or not) will be left alone and dpkg will follow the symlink if there is one." So that's what probably happens if you didn't install liferea newly but upgraded from a liferea version before 1.4.26-2 (I guess). Which means that this problem also exists in unstable.
