Public bug reported: Since 10th of December we finally have a new stable release of Liferea (1.8.0). Ubuntu still is on the old and soon unsupported stable series with version 1.6.6 for precise.
We should change that asap! Main reason is that an unhacked Liferea on our default filesystem EXT4 is barely usable due to Bug #290666 and the main feature of 1.8.0 is improved performance, which should at least fix that bug to some amount. Beside it's probably not a good idea to use an old upstream version for a LTS release, considering that upstream should drop support on that by focusing on the new stable series. ** Affects: liferea (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: upgrade-software-version -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/935147 Title: Upgrade Liferea to current stable release 1.8.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/liferea/+bug/935147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
