*** Bug 78474 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
if feeds is not None and feeds[0]. (index out of range) - not quite sure how that works - ie feeds != None and there's no feeds[0]. Anyway, you mentioned removing your configs fixed this. Can you reproduce the bug?
I've installed another time stable version 0.19.2 because I had this other problem : http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78956 Now I've reinstalled this 0.25.1 version to view if this problem persist, but I think the problem was resolved deleting the config dir, maybe in this directory were configs from the older version. Now the program not crash at start. So I think this bug is fixed.
Thanks for responding.
