Description eric 2013-10-13 17:24:56 UTC

I've tried this with many feeds from the BBC, for example: http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml
Fetching the feed is successful, but when I click on an article, akregator always crashes halfway while loading the page.
This happens since 4.11.0, I didn't have this problem on 4.10.x.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up a new BBC-feed: http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml
2. Set the property of this feed: "Load the full website when reading articles"=on
3. Fetch new articles for this feed
4. Click on an article from this feed
Actual Results:  
The loading of the page will start, a few details (text and pictures) will become visible, but then Akregator crashes before the loading is finished.

Expected Results:  
Akregator will load the page without crashing.

The loading of the page will only result in a crash when the property "Load the full website when reading articles" is on.
When this property is off, clicking on the article and then clicking on the link will open the page in a new tab and it doesn't crash Akregator.

Could you provide the backtrace of the crash ?

If the crash still happens with a recent KDE version (4.10.5 or 4.11), please add the backtrace or provide steps to reproduce. For more information, see http://techbase.kde.org/User:DarioAndres/How_to_provide_more_information_about_crash_reports

Since 4.11.4 (didn't try 4.10.5 or 4.11.3) Akregator doesn't crash anymore.
