I did an upgrade, and liferea managed the upgrade fine by itself. So
what you could try is removing all reference to liferea 1.6 in your
home dir (don't know how many places it stores stuff, anyone else?),
putting your liferea 1.4 settings in the right place then just running
liferea, it should prompt you about the upgrade and let you know it's
leaving your 1.4 settings in case of problems, and do the conversion
for you.

Hope this helps
