Description Armin Berres 2008-11-04 23:18:30 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When opening a link in the internal feed reader Akregator most of the time needs some seconds to open the link in a new tab. Once the new tab is opened browsing works just fine and as expected.
Konqueror itself is also fine.

I observe this behavior since the beginning of the KDE 4 series, but didn't report this bug yet. Shame on me.

Comment 1 Armin Berres 2008-11-04 23:19:36 UTC

Version is 1.3.3 right now btw. Can't select this specific one in Bugzilla.

Comment 2 Armin Berres 2008-11-30 01:21:08 UTC

Oki doki, I just noticed that in university aakregator is a lot faster.
Maybe akregator triggers something like #162600? I have completely disabled ipv6 though. Maybe i should fire up wireshark...

Comment 4 FiNeX 2010-06-18 09:24:50 UTC

I'm not able to reproduce anymore using KDE SC 4.4.4: the tab is quickly displayed (empty) and after the page is loaded.

Comment 5 km 2010-06-20 19:08:53 UTC

I still experience this in 4.4.4 sometimes. Usually the tab opens instantly, but once in a while it takes few seconds. Don't know what it depends on...

Comment 6 James Dent 2010-06-21 04:03:41 UTC

I'm still seeing this is 4.4.4, too. In my case, it happens every time I open a link. (Also, my internet connection is likely quite slow in comparison.)

The problem lies in the overly complicated operation for creating a new tab. This is not because it waits for the website is to be ready but rather there are too many underground operations needed to complete before a new tab is created.

Comment 9 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 19:42:00 UTC

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of akregator (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Comment 10 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:29:48 UTC

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
