I have now checked the website for buoh. The project is now mantained in the GNOME git repository 
(http://git.gnome.org/browse/buoh/). It has been adopted for libsoup-2.4 but also for gtk+3. The problem for 
C6 is that gtk+3 is not available. It is available in Fedora14 or higher.

Build a static binary on 5.6 and use that one or change comic reader.
