Just for the record, it is preferred to have TWO bug reports then,
instead of one. This makes keeping track more difficult.

Can you please confirm that liferea is running after the first time (by
e.g. running the following command in a terminal:
$ ps aux | grep liferea
On my system, by default liferea starts up in the system tray but
doesn't open. I believe (but haven't verified) that this is because most
people will run liferea in their startup and would thus always have
liferea in their face.

What Desktop Environment are you running? KDE by any chance? I think
this is a duplicate of a known issue that seems to depend on the DE
and/or the theme, so providing that information would help.

Title:
  Start up and other issues in Liferea

Status in liferea package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm facing two issues with Liferea:
  1. Clicking the icon once in the launcher doesn't launch liferea. The cursor shows the busy animation for a while and stops. I've to click the icon again to launch the program. Same with command line. Typing 'liferea' doesn't open liferea. The icon on the launcher has to be clicked again. 
  2. By default the height of the feed display area of any subscription is nearly zero. I've to click and drag the the border to get any useful height every time liferea is opened.

  Both the problems are experienced when liferea is used for the first
  time after booting the laptop. Subsequent instances work normally.
