Blogger Importer: File class-feed.php is deprecated

[ironprogrammer]

The Blogger Importer plugin (tested v0.9) causes the following deprecation notice:

PHP Deprecated: File class-feed.php is <strong>deprecated</strong> since version 4.7.0! Use fetch_feed() instead. in ../wp-includes/functions.php on line 5577

class-feed.php was deprecated in [39449].

The issue involves a deprecated file (class-feed.php) triggered by the Blogger Importer. This file has been deprecated and is no longer supported in the current version. Urgently seeking guidance on updating the Blogger Importer or adopting an alternative method. This is essential to ensure compatibility with upcoming WordPress updates. Your timely support in resolving this matter is highly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, @sancs989 -- Would you please confirm which version of WordPress and which version of ​Blogger Importer (currently v0.9.2) you're using? The deprecated class file ​appears to have been addressed in v0.9.1.

Quick recap before marking this issue as resolved. As of ​version 0.9.1:

• If the current WP version is >= 4.7, it uses SimplePie (​reference).
• For WP < 4.7, it loads the deprecated class-feed.php (​reference).

For any further issues with the importer, please file upstream at ​https://github.com/WordPress/blogger-importer/issues. (And thank you, @lenasterg, for your submitted PR that was working to address it.)
