liferea won't take idn urls (non-ascii characters)

[Stefan Bethge]

Binary package hint: liferea

I tried adding the url http://www.tobiasfünke.de/tobiblog/?feed=rss2 (which has other problems in firefox as well) and liferea
gives an error: "HTTP Fehlercode 0: URL ist ungültig", so something like: "HTTP error code 0: URL is invalid".
It should correctly handle the valid url (as in rfc 3490). Workaround is converting it myself to http://www.xn--tobiasfnke-geb.de/tobiblog/?feed=rss2.

Not anymore. For 1.6 and newer, this will only be fixed once
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548287 is, since we now use libsoup
for the networking code.

Looks like fixed.
Feel free to report any other bug you'll encounter using Ubuntu.
