Not sure - my current installation is Squeeze, and I have 1.6.4. My previous install was Sid, and I probably had 1.8 on it before I stopped using that machine. In any event, I'm currently pretty happy with Liferea (1.6.x), although it's kind of sluggish (perceptible lag when moving to new item / feed, very slow startup, serious application unresponsiveness while updating all feeds). > I have not tried it, but from what I understand it was written with this > problem in mind. > > From the liferea blog: > > "When you upgrade to 1.8 you might be searching for new features and be > a bit disappointed.
