Can confirm here. KDE-4.2.0's akregator on Mandriva Cooker, installed from Mandriva's RPMs. It's very annoying. Please fix it. Created attachment 33667 [details]
A Patch to correct the bug (against latest trunk)
This patch corrects this bug. It was a simple matter of uncommenting a commented-out line. The comment about the commented out line read:
{{{{{{{
// don't set url to selection as it's a no-no according to a fd.o spec
}}}}}}}
And I've changed it to:
{{{{
// Setting the selection to the URL is apparantly a no-no according to a
// freedesktop.org spec (which ?), but users have complained and so we
// restore it.
}}}}
I will now punish all the ivory-tower freedesktop.org spec-writers by having them spend a year reading RSS using akregator, without this patch so they'll understand how inane their recommendations are.

SVN commit 967999 by osterfeld: Make "copy link location" copy the URL to the primary selection buffer (what gets pasted on middle-click) again. Some unspecified spec allegedly says it's wrong, but nobody seems to care, so reenable it for consistency's sake .
