Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1.3) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux I really verified this :) If I start KDE, then I get fresh, new news. If I leave KDE open after that, knewsticker's contents are never updated, although I use a "News query interval" of 31 minutes. If I close knewsticker just to open it a few seconds later, I get new news that I've never seen before. I see the same behaviour on multiple machine, both with and without use of a proxy server.
Subject: kdenetwork/knewsticker/common CVS commit by raabe: - Don't break when a newssource gets updated, but the new RSS file is smaller than the previous one; the internal buffer got expanded, but never shrinked, so after the reset() call the new data was inserted in the first part of the buffer, but because it did not shrink there was still garbled markup from the previous version, which breaks the XML parser. Patch based on very nice problem analysis by Mary Cushion (mary at eiger dot demon dot co dot uk).
