[Bug 131743] Re: liferea-add-feed does nothing in firefox

[Jérôme Guelfucci]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: liferea
  
  To have new "subscriptions" automatically picked up by liferea, you're
  supposed to set the external application (within firefox) to "/usr/bin
  /liferea-add-feed". Clicking this however, does nothing since my fresh
  install of Gutsy Tribe 4.
+ 
+ @mozilla.org/browser/shell-service;1  is apparently not resolvable,
+ Components.classes["@mozilla.org/browser/shell-
+ service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIShellService_MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH)
+ fails.
+ 
+ Error that can be found in the console error when trying to use liferea-
+ add-feed :
+ 
+ Error: [Exception... "ServiceManager::GetService returned failure code:"  nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///usr/lib/firefox/components/FeedConverter.js ::
