Bug 107243

Confirmed.

A simple workaround until this bug has been fixed would be a DCOP call:

akregator && dcop akregator AkregatorIface addFeed "<newurl>"

The above mentioned DCOP call is only present in SVN (thanks to randomaccess for pointing out).

Well, forget everything about this workaround - it simply cannot work, but is totally crap. Thanks to myself for pointing this out ;-)

A workaround that I've tested as working is as follows:

dcop akregator AkregatorIface addFeedsToGroup [ "<newurl" ] Imported

I generally have akregator running, so I don't bother with the "akregator &&" bit.

i vote for removing the commandline argument, and adding a defaultgroup to addFeedsToGroup

this should fix it, not tested though
