Full Changelog: v1.15.5...v1.15.6

1.15.5 Unstable

This release brings small improvements to the trayicon plugin and content filtering using DOMPurify which should increase security against XSS attacks via feeds providing rich HTML content.

Changes

* #1322 Remove Mate workaround from trayicon plugin
  (Yuri Konotopov)

* #1318 Set prgname to match application id (needed for KDE)
  (bbhtt)

* #1317 Support XDG_CONFIG_HOME for trayicon plugoin config
  (bbhtt)

  (Lars Windolf)

* Added DOMPurify.js for content filtering
  (Lars Windolf)

1.15.4 Unstable

This release brings small fixes and a rework of the trayicon plugin.

Improved trayicon

Thanks to the work of Yuri Konotopov the trayicon plugin now supports AppIndicator
and libayatana. The important difference here is that the new item counter can be shown
as a text label next to the icon which makes for much improved rendering.

There are some limitations though as AppIndicator might not work perfect in all implementations
(e.g. XFCE).

Changes

    * Improve on #1192 by doing pane sanity checks on each resize
      (Lars Windolf)

    * Fixes #1297: Reorder loading plugins and deactivating webkit-settings
      (Lars Windolf)

    * #1305 Refactoring of the trayicon plugin to support  AppIndicator and libayatana
      (Yuri Konotopov)

1.15.3 Unstable

This is a new bugfix release for 1.15

Changes

    * Fixes #1297: Enabling plugin 'webkit-settings' crashes Liferea
      (reported by Paul Gevers)

    * Fixes #1294: Clicking 'remove item' caused a SIGSEGV
      (reported by Rich Coe)

    * Fixes #1276: Old WebKitCache cache not cleaned
      (reported by hasezoey)

1.15.2 Unstable

This is a bugfix release. It provides an important stability fix regarding feed parsing.
Kudos to Rich Coe for debugging and fixing the issue!

Changes

    * Fixes #1291: Feed parsing is broken
      (Rich Coe)

1.15.1 Unstable

This is a new feature release. It introduces the long awaited switch to libsoup3 and libwebkit2gtk-4.1.
Thanks to many testers helping testing the latest code from git some errors were ironed out already.
Still there is an issue remaining where feed updates are getting stuck when updating while DNS resolution/Wifi/network... fails. Please comment if you also experience this issue!

Also noteworthy is a simplification of the debug handling which removes three CLI parameters
--debug-performance, --debug-trace and --debug-verbose.

      (Lars Windolf)
