The net/liferea 1.14.0 release has been out for a while now
and I submitted #269630 in February [0].

There's already a 1.14.1 which fixes a security problem [1].

I've updated the patch in the PR but unfortunately on my
ElectroBSD 13.2-STABLE system Liferea 1.14.1 reproducibly
crashes at start up.

Is anyone here using Liferea and can try to reproduce the problem?
