           Summary: akregator cannot open page with accented characters.
           Product: akregator
           Version: GIT (master)
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: lacsilva at gmail.com


Version:           GIT (master) (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

Some feeds link their articles to pages with accented characters. Double
clicking on these articles in akregator opens a browser but the acented
characters in the url are not passed correctly so the page does not open
without manual intervention (manually correcting the characters in the url
bar).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Add the following feed to akregator:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/PublicoCiencias
Try to open any of the articles in an external browser.

Actual Results:  
The browser opens but since the url has accented characters, the page never
shows and a "404 - File or directory not found." error is shown.

Expected Results:  
Accented characters should be passed correctly to the browser.

OS: Linux (i686) release 3.2.0-17-generic-pae
Compiler: gcc
