Oh, I'm very aware of that fact.  The fact remains that both remain in
common in the backtrace and the resulting error output that hurled
chunks.  Just as there should be nothing in common between Evolution and
Liferea, there is something in common that seems to be causing this
problem.  Determining the common factor is the problem.  The fact that
neither seem to be updated seems to point to some deeper common factor,
which is far more disturbing.

Excellent suggestion.  I'll proceed with that.

Many thanks!
