I ran into an (apparently documented, but very old) bug yesterday. Turns out
it's fixed in Debian with a one-line patch, which can be found here:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=734327;msg=5

The bug is basically triggered by malformed rss feeds. The fix comes down to
filtering out bad tags with a kludge like:

- tagline = ",".join(taglist)
+ tagline = ",".join(filter(None, taglist))
