Description Bernhard Walle 2009-03-15 13:38:04 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.1)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.3 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux

When adding the RSS feed

  http://www.jonmedia.net/en/blog/rss

then akregator, then the name is

  "Blog of Tobias J&auml;hnel"

instead of

  "Blog of Tobias Jähnel"

It can be changed manually in the properties dialog.

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.

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.
