Akragator does not support http compression


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. add a feed which only deliver compressed content (eg: http://www.zoocoop.com/contentoob/lobsters.atom)
2. use context menu to fetch content

Akregator fetches content over http with "Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip", recieves compressed content, decompresses it, parses it, displays it.

No issue with this feed.

Try with newer akregator and syndication packages and reopen if it still fails.

5.9.2 is very old.
