            Bug ID: 378757
           Summary: Archive: Archive folder not created if missing,
                    articles not saved
           Product: akregator
           Version: 5.2.3
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: esainane+kde at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I noticed that Akregator was not remembering the articles between sessions,
even though Configure -> Archive -> Default Archive Settings was set to "Keep
all articles".

Attaching strace:

[...]
mkdir("/home", 0777)                    = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
stat("/home", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
mkdir("/home/user", 0777)               = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
stat("/home/user", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
mkdir("/home/user/.local", 0777)        = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
stat("/home/user/.local", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
mkdir("/home/user/.local/share", 0777)  = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
stat("/home/user/.local/share", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
mkdir("/home/user/.local/share/akregator", 0777) = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
stat("/home/user/.local/share/akregator", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096,
...}) = 0
open("/home/user/.local/share/akregator/Archive/archiveindex.mk4", O_RDWR) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/user/.local/share/akregator/Archive/archiveindex.mk4",
O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0666) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/user/.local/share/akregator/Archive/feedlistbackup.mk4", O_RDWR) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/user/.local/share/akregator/Archive/feedlistbackup.mk4",
O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0666) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[...]

While it checks for ~/.local/share/akregator (and parents),
~/.local/share/akregator/Archive/archiveindex.mk4, and
~/.local/share/akregator/Archive/feedlistbackup.mk4, creating them if they do
not exist, there does not appear to be any attempt to check for
~/.local/share/akregator/Archive/ and create it if it does not exist, leading
to the failure to create the files in this directory.

Manually creating ~/.local/share/akregator/Archive works around the problem,
with articles then being properly archived and preserved between sessions.
