Bug ID: 519933
Summary: Akregator fails to parse valid RSS feed from
kevquirk.com (“invalid XML”)
Classification: Applications
Product: akregator
Version First 6.7.0
Reported In:
Platform: NixOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: feed parser
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
Akregator is unable to subscribe to or refresh the following RSS feed:
https://kevquirk.com/feed
The application reports the error:
> "Could not fetch feed: Could not read feed (invalid XML)"
However, the feed appears to be valid and parses correctly in other validators
and readers.
The site owner confirmed the feed is functioning correctly, and the W3C Feed
Validator reports it as valid:
https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkevquirk.com%2Ffeed
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Akregator
2. Add a new feed subscription
3. Enter the feed URL: https://kevquirk.com/feed
4. Attempt to refresh or load the feed
OBSERVED RESULT
Akregator displays the error:
> “Could not fetch feed: Could not read feed (invalid XML)”
and the feed is not loaded.
EXPECTED RESULT
Akregator should successfully parse and display the feed items.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS: NixOS 26.05 (Yarara) (Wayland)
KDE Plasma Version: I am using niri 26.04 (Nixpkgs)
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.25.0
Qt Version: Using 6.11.0 and built against 6.11.0
Qt: Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64
Kernel: linux 6.18.26
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- The feed validates successfully using the W3C Feed Validator.
- Other feed readers appear to handle the feed correctly.
- This may indicate that Akregator’s XML/RSS parser is rejecting valid XML that
other parsers accept.
