Problem with firefox live bookmarks

[Vincenzo Ciancia]

Binary package hint: deskbar-applet

I just added as a live bookmark in firefox the following url:

http://www.duecuorieunagatta.net/index.php/feed/

and I got a message from deskbar saying that a bug has just been discovered. The dialog says that I should report the bug to the developers, but it doesn't even say _what_ application is signaling the error (I can understand it from the backtrace), apart from any clue about how to report the bug and to whom :)

Anyway, here's the "traceback":

Traceback (most recent call last):
