Using a proxy server with liferea (0.4.7 cvs) and KDE desktop

liferea and uses the global GNOME configuration to find the proxy
server to use. Since I prefer to use KDE, setting those values is
problematic.

My proxy server is running on localhost:8080, so I needed to edit the
file ~/.gconf/system/http_proxy/%gconf.xml to make it look like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
<entry name="use_http_proxy" 
        mtime="1072573677" muser="marc" type="bool" value="true"/>
<entry name="port" mtime="1072573677" 
        muser="marc" type="int" value="8080"/>
<entry name="host" mtime="1063901920" 
        muser="marc" type="string"><stringvalue>localhost</stringva
lue></entry>
</gconf>

Hope that helps someone...
