Ditto here. I'd suggest escalating the importance of this bug, since Liferea 1.6.x is hereby useless if you're behind an auth proxy.
(Also, I was dumb enough to delete my ~/.liferea-1.4 dir and now can't downgrade without losing my archive.) On a sidenote, the support for auth proxies in lots of Linux apps today is simply abysmal. Some don't support them. Some support them but can't handle various characters (such as @ in username). Some have the support working but manage to lose it between releases. Some have it and use it for some things but not others. And so on. Basically, if you're behind an auth proxy with a Linux desktop, expect lots of grief. -- [Karmic] Liferea doesn't update feeds behind a proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/461810 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
