Could you please add a bit more information about what exactly doesn't work?
Can't you load the feed itself, or does it crash when try to open an episode, or do episode downloads fail, or ...?

If possible, please mention the exact error that you get from the application, and describe the exact steps to reproduce the issue.

Kasts recognizes the feed, but doesn't load any episodes. I attach a screenshot of Kasts and another of gPodder, so you can see the difference. Thank you.

Ok, thanks. That's already clearer.

The weird thing is that I can't reproduce the problem on a natively build package.  The feed loads fine, and I can see and play all the episodes.

It might be a flatpak-specific problem.  Where did you get the flatpak from?  Is that the one from flathub or from the KDE binary repository?

Flathub.

I cannot reproduce the problem, not by using native packages nor by using the one from flathub.  So, I'm suspecting that there's a problem with your database.

If you don't care too much about played/non-played episode statuses, you could export your feeds to opml, delete the database and then import the feeds from opml again.  You can delete the database (and other cached items) by deleting the app data dir.  For flatpaks that's probably ~/.var/app/org.kde.kasts/

Yes, I've deleted ~/.var/app/org.kde.kasts/ and now it works. Thanks and sorry.

No problem.  If it happens again, then there could be something wrong in other parts of the code which could be corrupting the database.  If that happens, feel free to open another bug report.  (And then try to add what you did just before the errors started happening.)

I'll do that. Thank you!
