liferea doesnt handle network-manager online/offline state

From http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20544157/buildlog_ubuntu-jaunty-i386.liferea_1.4.23-0ubuntu1_FULLYBUILT.txt.gz

Use X Session Management........ : yes
Use DBUS........................ : yes
Use NetworkManager.............. : no
GNUTLS SSL/HTTPS Support........ : yes

When liferea is built without NM support, the online/offline functionality is still present to be activated/deactivated by the user. With NM support, it will also listen to the NM DBus interface for changes in the connection status.

So, liferea is fine, it has the correct build-dependencies et al.

The problem is that libnm-glib-dev doesn't depend on network-manager-dev as it should, as libnm_glib.pc has:
Requires: NetworkManager >= 0.7.0 glib-2.0 dbus-glib-1

So adding a depends: network-manager-dev (>= 0.7.0) to libnm-glib-dev should fix this.
