I've added a patch by Lars (the liferea developer) to fix this.
Please, test the liferea_1.2.10b-0ubuntu2.deb and liferea-mozilla_1.2.10b-0ubuntu2.deb from http://emilio.pozuelo.org/deb/
And report if solves the issue

I have the same problem. I tried the patches, but it seems to have no effect... :-(

Hello folks!

Please, install the liferea and liferea-mozilla packages from http://emilio.pozuelo.org/deb/ and run liferea with the following command:
liferea --debug-net --debug-verbose > liferea-net.log

Then crash liferea and attach the resulting file liferea-net.log

Thanks for your testing!
Emilio

Here you go...

Hi David

Did you reinstalled the package from the url? Note that the package changed since the last time, though the version is the same. Please, if you didn't reinstalled it, do it and retest it :)

Thanks
Emilio

Hi Emilio,

Yes I reinstalled both packages from th url. I tried again now and this time rebooted before running the crash test - see new log attached.

Hi David.

Please, reinstall liferea again with the packages in http://emilio.pozuelo.org/deb/ and test. I think they fix your issue! It seems that a change in mozilla/mozembed.c caused this.

Thanks
Emilio

Oh, you should also reinstall liferea-mozilla

That seems to have fixed it - nice job!

Thanks.

Hello again!

Can you please test again the liferea and liferea-mozilla from http://emilio.pozuelo.org/deb/
The actual fix breaks the auto-load-link in external browser feature, so we are working in fix your crash without breaking it.

Thanks
Emilio

This is fixed with the new 1.2.10c-0ubuntu1

I can confirm this, if still needed.
