Lee >>> You're right - rsync didn't mess up the directory structure on 
the drive;  but the 'folders' within Liferea were missing.  (Liferea 
allows you to 'group' feeds under headings of your choice;  and it was 
this that didn't get preserved - something going wrong with the Liferea 
cache and database files?)

I may have been misleading by mentioning permissions;  I suspect it's 
the owner/group information that matters, and that's what's getting lost 
(though I'd be the first to admit I don't really understand Unix 
ownerships/permissions).

But frankly reading some news feeds is not a serious enough matter to 
spend time reconstructing the data in order to use get a synced view of 
Liferea. ;-)
