Version: 1.2.9 (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux If you try to add a feed to akregator using a feed://-style URI, like feed://example.com/sample.xml, then akregator tries to download http:////example.com/sample.xml, which fails. The "subscribe to this feed" button in Firefox uses feed:// URIs, so it can't be used with akregator directly... my current workaround is a shell script that replaces "feed:" with "http:" in the URI before running akregator, and using that script as the feed handler in Firefox.
This happens even using current trunk (~KDE4.1-beta2).
The bug still happens in KDE 4.2 (Akregator 1.4.0)
