The point of the dbus-launch is that it launches one bugs for the session. On
debian this is done as soon as you login to X (when you have dbus installed)..
There is no reason for liferea to launch it's own. Especially since it works
fine when there is no session bus available (It just throws an error about not
beging able to contact the bus on stderr)

Even worse, it breaks the assumption that all applications in one session are
on one bus and breaks some functionality.
