I'm afraid that's not a bug: 

I Added this feed and let akregator sync it for a few days. The issue comes
from the website which alters the articles URLS.

eg with the article "Senior Manufacturing Engineer, Optics, Job Code: 1011"
from yesterday:

- The url when clicking on "complete story" was
http://www.photonicsjobs.com/job//2011-08-28/570 yesterday and today became
http://www.photonicsjobs.com/job//2011-08-29/570

Looks like this website changes the GUID value (GUID=Globally Unique
Identifier). From an Akregator pov, a new GUID means a new article, hence the
article duplication

For further details see
http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.photonicsjobs.com%2Frss.xml
and look at line ~24
(http://www.photonicsjobs.com/job//2011-08-29/570)

Only the website owner can fix this issue

Thanks for the analysis, I'll contact the webmaster!

I have one comment. I have read that the mandatory subelements of  are
,  and . How is akregator detecting old articles in
this case (without  elements)?

Do you think it's possible to implement a "delete duplicates" function in
akregator to clean the mess in this feed? I mean, a function which compares all
the mandatory elements in the articles (cited above) without considering
. If you think it makes sense I can open another bug.
