Python feedparser is a good place to start if you want to write
something. That is if using bash and sed + wget/curl is too easy ;-p

leak is a python based cli rss aggregator - not sure if it's still being
developed though

But for real minimal, Debian goodness:-

# apt-get install rsstail

eg.:-
$ rsstail -u https://www.auscert.org.au/rss.html?cid=20


Not sure if that has all the features you want (it only shows new feeds).

Aggregation is possible (kind of) by combining it with multitail (also
in the main repos).
