How to Compile from SVN
Here is a short command list for SVN trunk check-out and compilation:
- svn co https://liferea.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/liferea/trunk
- cd liferea
- sh autogen.sh
- make
- make install
That's all. The really hard part is to have all necessary development tools and header packages to be installed. It's hard to say how they are named in your distribution, but they should include:
- Tools: automake, autoconf, gettext, libtool, intltool
- Libraries+Headers: sqlite3, webkit, GTK, libsoup2.4

Thank You! I Will give it a try
Thanks. I finally succeeded me to compile liferea from SVN!
A couple of notes maybe interesting for anyone who ran into trouble:
At step (2) I had to cd ./liferea/trunk/trunk/liferea
I had to set the execute bit manually for the autogen.sh script (chmod +x autogen.sh)
After that some packages had to be installed as you mentioned.
My experience for my Ubuntu 8.10:
I found a great site which had all my missing packages: http://www.paldo.org
I simply searched for the missing packages by using Package search http://tinyurl.com/dy56wo on the left site of the site
gtk+-2.16.0 package
===================
Because I use an older glib package on my distribution (Ubuntu 8.10) i had to export my LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the glib-2.0 package:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/include/glib-2.0:/usr/local/lib
now i was able to compile my required gtk+-2.16.0 package
Hopefully I helped someone by sharing my personal experience for successfully building this great feed reader
