Bugfixes
=======

* When URLs are passed to an external browser they are now escaped correctly. (Lars Lindner)
* When a feed could not be downloaded after the subscription it was missing a cache file. This caused an error message each time the program starts. This is fixed now. (Lars Lindner)
* Debian bug #254959 reported by Martin-Eric Racine was fixed. No Liferea recognizes RSS 1.0 Creative Commons license information. (Lars Lindner)
* Better favicon detection (more coming in the next release).
* Feed properties (such as titles) are now saved when they change. (Nathan Conrad)
* Compiles on Solaris, and is hopefully more portable now. (Nathan Conrad)
* Feed update locking issues were fixed. (Nathan Conrad)
* Several memleaks were fixed.
