Bug Description
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.

I updated the package and reworked most patches, please see the attached debdiff.
What's left is the libindicate.patch, as at least some of Maia's work is already in the new stable upstream release. Can someone take care of that?
