Description houz 2016-07-17 16:30:38 UTC

I am not entirely sure what version of using Akregator I am using. My package manager calls it 16.04.02 while the program itself identifies as 5.2.2. As both versions are not selectable I left it blank.

About my problem: A few RSS feeds I have subscribed (for example GIMP's) use '\\' to varying degree for links in the posts. The problem is that Akregator resolves those to 'file://' which might be technically correct, but it's entirely useless. Would it be possible to use the protocol used to retrieve the feed instead? So either 'http://' or 'https://' in most cases.

Thanks in advance
Tobias
