Description Martin Ereth 2006-05-05 18:43:27 UTC
Version:           1.2.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:                Linux

What about showing the current status of aKregator over the icon in the system tray?

The number of unread messages is displayed good.

But maybe you can add showing the nice exclamation mark (black symbol, yellow
background), when one feed can't be retrieved.
And display the icon shadowed when feeds are being retrieved, until all feeds are
retrieved.

Duplicate submission: BUG #126810

Jaison, right way is to use "Mark as duplicate" entry to mark duplicates, btw. Thank you anyway :)

Try to imagine: 
You click the "Sumit the bug" button, wait for 30 secs and get a 403 error.

How would you react?

My answer: I just went back in my browser-history and pushed the button another time.

Teemu: no, do not mark duplicate accidental submissions as duplicate bugs. Those are counted up in statistics.
Comment 5 Teemu Rytilahti 2006-05-14 22:34:27 UTC
Thiago, thanks for pointing this out. Didn't realize it was an accidental duplicate, I must have been pretty tired that day. And yes, I did know dupes get counted, but thank you.
